[絵本役割] 明治１８年１１月刊

斎藤長八編 · 1887 · 斎藤長八 · 12 pictures

An 1887 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) edited by Saitō Chōhachi and published by him, issued in Meiji 18 and aimed at general readers. Its pictures are woodblock-style prints with bold black outlines and dense patterning: armoured warriors with crests and banners, a column of tiny calligraphic tables, and crowded battle scenes that suggest strong graphic contrast and rhythmic repetition of armour, flags and script for designers.
