大正大震火画譜 : 木版色摺 第1集
A Japanese illustrated album titled Taishō Great Earthquake and Fire Picture Album, first volume, compiled by the Nihon Hanga Kai and published in Tokyo in 1923 as a woodblock-printed picture book. The plates show scenes of the disaster aftermath, from crowds gathered before a large temple hall to a horse-drawn cart in rain and a figure with a bow among fleeing people. For a designer, the strongest takeaway is the contrast between dense black ink masses and fine grey linework, especially in the foliage and crowd groupings.
