絵本春の錦 [1]

鈴木春信画 · 山崎金兵衛 · 18 pictures

An Edo-period Japanese picture book (ehon) illustrated by Suzuki Harunobu and published by Yamazaki Kinbei, with color woodblock prints of women in interiors. The pictures show elegant figures in domestic and garden settings, with delicate line work and soft pastel color that a designer could draw on for muted palettes and fine linear patterning.
