新日本画譜 上巻
A Japanese ehon picture book of 1911, published by Hōsunsha and illustrated by Ishii Hakutei, offering plates of plants and landscapes for Japanese painters and readers of the period. Its tall, narrow plates show chrysanthemums, flowering branches, and reedy grasses rendered in dense black ink masses against open white ground, with a strong sense of vertical composition a designer could borrow for poster or panel layouts.
