岩見武勇伝 : 絵本実録

1887 · 駸々堂 · 19 pictures

An 1887 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) published by Shinshindō, retelling a popular warrior tale in woodblock-style line prints for a general readership. The pictures show samurai in action and courtly interiors with bold black outlines and dense patterned robes, offering a designer strong figure silhouettes, kimono pattern motifs, and high-contrast line work that reads well at small sizes.
