楳嶺花鳥画譜
A Japanese ehon picture book of flower-and-bird studies drawn by Kono Baiyo and published in Kyoto in 1893 by Aoki Tsunesaburo, probably for amateur painters and students of Japanese brush painting. The pictures are ink-wash sketches of birds perched among blossoms, berries and leaves, with loose, economical brushwork, open white space and red seal stamps that a designer could borrow for minimal botanical compositions.
