絵本通俗三国志 8編 巻之3
An 1850s-era Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) illustrating the Three Kingdoms romance, illustrated by Katsushika Taito and published by Okada Mohei in Edo, aimed at general popular readers. Its pictures show a mountain landscape with a rooftop village, a battle scene with mounted warriors among rocks and pines, a seated and a standing figure in a tiled interior, and a robed man beside a table with candlesticks. Designers can draw on the dense hatching, the strong black-and-white line contrast, and the layered depth of rock and foliage.
