直彦画譜
Naohiko Kumagai's Chokugen gafu, edited by Fukushima Kishizō and published by Gahōsha in 1910, is a Japanese ehon picture book of landscapes and figures printed for an art-learning audience. The four scanned pictures are heavily dithered, low-contrast monochrome views of rocky shores, a mountain valley with a stream, a pine-covered hillside, and a distant figure, so a designer might take from them loose tonal composition, scattered halftone texture, and the silhouette of rock and foliage against pale ground.
