万工雛形画譜
A Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) by Kondō Seitarō, published in 1886 by the author himself, offering model designs for craftsmen and the general reader. Its woodblock-style pages show plants, birds, figures and small landscape scenes arranged in framed panels, with some captions in Japanese script. A designer might draw on its clean, sparse linework, its framed panel layouts and its bird-and-branch compositions for pattern or spot illustration.
