津ゝし絵本

128 pictures

A Japanese ehon picture book with no date, maker, or patron given in the record, so its origin is known only from the subject heading. The four pictures are hand-painted botanical studies of azalea-like flowers on cream paper, one flower per page, in orange-red and pale pink with green leaves, giving a designer a simple reference for flat, outlined floral motifs with limited palettes.
