絵本三国妖婦伝 上編
An 1884 Japanese woodblock-printed picture book (ehon) published by Kimura Bunsaburō and written by Takai Ranzan, drawing on Chinese Three Kingdoms romance for a popular readership. The four pictures are black-and-white block-print scenes of armoured warriors, a woman seated at a lacquered table, a horse-drawn chariot, and a violent battle among crowds, with dense hatching and calligraphic text panels a designer could borrow for bold graphic compositions.
