絵本通俗三国志 3編 巻之2
A Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) from the Edo period, illustrated by Katsushika Taito and published by Okada Mohei, adapting the Chinese Three Kingdoms romance for a popular readership. The pictures are black-and-white line engravings of armoured warriors, courtly interiors, and dramatic confrontations, with dense calligraphic captions in the margins. A designer might take their bold, economical contour lines, stylised hatching for stone and foliage, and the dynamic tangles of figures in tight compositions.
