絵本増補秋田蕗

1886 · 自由閣 · 26 pictures

A Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) published in 1886 by Jiyukaku, with woodblock-style prints of everyday domestic and garden scenes for general readers. The pictures show figures in patterned kimono interacting in interiors and verandas, some plates printed sideways, and a designer might take their dense hatching, patterned textiles, and compact composition as a model for line-based storytelling.
