小桜姫風月奇観 : 絵本 巻之1 下冊
A Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) written by Santō Kyōden's successor SanTō Kyōzan and illustrated by Utagawa Kunisada, published in Japan by Okada Mohei and others, in the woodblock tradition of the nineteenth century for a popular reading audience. The two pictures are woodblock prints: one shows a figure in dark robes standing on a boat's prow amid stylised waves beneath a leaning willow, the other a figure on a cliff edge above a boat with a net and a large rockfish in the rough water below. A designer might take the bold black-and-white carved wave patterns, the sharp silhouettes against open space, and the economical line work of the figures.
