絵本太閤記 4編 巻11

岡田玉山 著・画 · 1886 · 三史堂[ほか] · 12 pictures

Ehon picture book, volume 11 of the fourth part of the Ehon Taikoki, written and illustrated by Okada Gyokuzan and published in 1886 by Sanshidō and others in Japan. The woodblock-style pages show a chronicle of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's life for a Japanese reading public. Pictures show dense crowds in ranks, pine trees, tiled roofs and wooden architecture drawn in clean black line with open white ground, a strong model for cropped figure groups and ordered compositions.
