絵本太功記 : 解説 尼ケ崎の段
A Japanese illustrated booklet, a commentary on the Amagasaki scene of the kabuki-style drama Ehon Taikoki, compiled by the editorial office of the Tamai Seibunkan publishing house and printed in 1930 in Japan. It was made for general readers of popular theatre texts, and its one clear pictorial example is a woodblock-style scene of armoured samurai on a wooden veranda in a garden. The black calligraphic title panel and the grained paper texture are scan artefacts and printing marks rather than subject matter, so a designer should focus on the samurai scene's compressed figures, bold outlines and dense black masses.
