絵本源平盛衰記
An 1887 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) edited by Akisato Ritō and published by Shinshindō, retelling episodes of the Genpei wars for a general readership. Its woodblock-style pictures show seated courtiers, samurai in armour and figures with inscribed name labels in a stark, dense black-and-white line style, offering a designer strong examples of bold outline figure drawing and vertical cartouche text panels.
