義家(収載資料名:[武者无類外ニ三枚続キ画帖])

年英 · 1890 · 佐々木豊吉 · 4 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) by the artist Toyoyoshi, published in 1890 in Tokyo by Sasaki Toyokichi, made for a general readership of collectors and warrior-print enthusiasts. Its pictures range from pale, misty landscapes of bare winter trees and a distant fence to bold colour prints of samurai in armour, the flat layered colours and generous blank sky offering designers models of restrained atmosphere and strong figure composition.
