小学日本画帖 5
A Meiji-era Japanese picture book of ink-brush plant studies, drawn by Fukada Naoki and published in 1900 by Saikinsha for students learning Japanese painting. The pictures are plain black-line sketches of branches, flowers, leaves and fruit, with seal stamps in the margins, and a designer could draw on their economical contour line and open white ground for simple botanical motifs.
