This is a 1901 Japanese illustrated reference volume, number 10 of the Kōkogafu series, compiled by Kurokawa Harumura with Furukawa Mitsuyuki and revised by Kurokawa Mayori, published by the Tokyo Imperial Museum. Its woodblock-style black-and-white pictures reproduce historical figures, monks, and scenes from earlier Japanese painting and print, offering a designer strong examples of ink-line composition, flat black masses, and sparse architectural settings.
