玉洲習画帖 ３
A Japanese drawing manual of ink botanical studies, published in 1906 by Matsuda Shōsuke under the name of the painter Fujii Gyokushū for students of brush painting. The pictures show sparse, economical sprays of plants with dark leaves against open white paper, so a designer might take the use of negative space, seal marks, and single-branch asymmetric composition.
