[絵本] 〔４６〕佐倉宗五郎一代記下

大西庄之助編 · 1885 · 大西庄之助 · 21 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese ehon picture book published in 1885 by Onishi Shonosuke, a woodblock-printed popular story volume about the peasant hero Sakura Sogoro, with text columns of kana and kanji running alongside the scenes. The pictures show a samurai-era tale in bold black-and-white line work, with dense calligraphic captions that a designer could borrow for layout, dramatic silhouette, and hand-lettered panel composition.
