高森砕巌 画, 書画月報社 編 · 1912 · 斎藤政徳 · 61 pictures

A Japanese ehon picture book of landscape paintings by Takamori Saigan, compiled by the Shoga Gekkosha and published by Saito Masanori in 1912 for artists and collectors of Japanese ink painting. Its pages are tall vertical scenes of mountains, pines, and water, each with calligraphic inscriptions in the upper margin, showing how a designer can build compositions from stacked rock masses, mist, and small figures set in deep space.
