美術画譜
A Japanese ehon picture book published in 1893 by Kinseido, a volume of woodblock-style ink illustrations for an audience of artists and craftsmen. The pictures are black-and-white line drawings with heavy solid black areas, showing figures in robes and armour, flowers, a tiger and dragon, and a seated scholar. A designer might take from them the bold contrast of solid black masses against fine linework, and the circular vignettes framed within rectangular panels.
