義太夫百段集 中
A Meiji-era Japanese picture book published in 1894 by Kinōdō, compiled by Naitō Kaga, with subjects drawn from the gidayū puppet and recitation tradition. Its woodblock-style illustrations show seated and standing figures in patterned kimono within interiors marked by lattice screens and sparse stippled backgrounds. A designer might take the strong black-and-white figure silhouettes, the patterned robes and the economical use of open ground from these pages.
