[絵本] 〔１０〕小栗判官一代記下

荒川吉五郎編 · 1882 · 荒川吉五郎 · 15 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) volume, volume 10 of a set, published in 1882 by Arakawa Kichigorō, who also compiled it. It tells the story of the warrior Oguri Hangan in woodblock prints with columns of kana text. The pictures show armoured samurai in tense, staged groupings, with bold black linework, patterned armour, and text blocks that a designer could use for dense, graphic page layouts.
