道中画譜
This is a Japanese picture book (ehon) titled Dōchū Gafu, printed in Edo-period Japan by the publisher Tōhekidō and credited to Katsushika Hokusai, made for general readers wanting travel scenes. The pictures are monochrome woodblock line drawings of travellers on roads, mountain paths, shrines and coastal tracks, with light grey wash and loose, economical contours a designer could borrow for quick sketch-style linework and wayfaring motifs.
