Famous Places in Owari (Meiku shōkei shohen ) : [volume 3]
Famous Places in Owari, volume 3, is a Japanese woodblock-printed book of scenic views published in Nagoya by Chitoseen in 1847, with text by Katsukawa Shunkō (1743-1812). Its pages pair handwritten columns of calligraphy with paired landscape prints in a restrained palette of pale blue, green, and ochre. A designer could take from it the economical framing of landscapes, with small horizon bands, rocky outcrops, pine clusters, and misty water spreading across simple rectangular panels.
