日本風俗図絵 第12輯

黒川真道 編 · 1915 · 日本風俗図絵刊行会 · 125 pictures

A 1915 Japanese volume of woodblock-style prints from the Nihon fuzoku zue series, compiled by Kurokawa Mamichi and published by the Nihon Fuzoku Zue Kankōkai, depicting customs of the Edo period. The pictures are fine black line drawings with brief verse inscriptions in columns beside the figures, showing kimono cut, architecture, and street life a designer could borrow for period layouts, pattern, or calligraphic framing.
