Kyūrō (Baitei) Picture Album (Kyūrō gafu 九老画譜)
The Kyūrō Picture Album is a Japanese woodblock picture album by Ki Baitei, published in 1797, and it was made for viewers who wanted sketched scenes to copy or study. The pages show loose ink sketches of trees, reeds, figures, rivers with boats, and rocky landforms, drawn with varied brush strokes that a designer could use for quick, economical line work and natural textures.
