考古画譜 ８
A Japanese illustrated reference volume, Kōko gafu volume 8, compiled by Kurokawa Harumura with Furukawa Mikiyuki and expanded by Kurokawa Masayori, published in Tokyo in 1901 by the Imperial Household Museum for scholars of antiquity. Its pictures are monochrome line drawings of courtly figures, interiors and seated officials in historical dress, with bold black garments and sparse ground lines, offering a designer clear figure silhouettes and ornamental patterns on screens and mats to adapt.
