絵本鏡百首
An 1753 Japanese picture book (ehon) by Nakamura Mansen with illustrations by Nishikawa Sukenobu, likely for a general readership of the Edo period. The pages are woodblock-printed monochrome line drawings with handwritten calligraphic verses beside the scenes, showing interiors, figures in gardens, and winter landscapes. A designer might draw on their economical linework, the open spatial layouts, and the pairing of brief poetry with image.
