時致鎌倉殿ノ狩屋ヲ騒ス（収載資料名：[武者无類外ニ三枚続キ画帖]）

年英 · 1891 · 佐々木豊吉 · 3 pictures

This is a Meiji-period Japanese woodblock print from an 1891 ehon picture book, made by the artist Toshihide and published by Sasaki Toyokichi in Japan for a general readership of collectors. The three prints show scenes of warriors and night intrigue in an interior of wooden screens, shutters and polished floorboards, rendered in flat areas of black and grey with crisp linework. A designer might borrow the strong silhouettes, the dark patterned panels, and the way text cartouches sit inside the image.
