[絵本] 〔１５〕神君長篠大合戦下

荒川吉五郎編 · 1882 · 荒川吉五郎 · 16 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1882 by Arakawa Kichigorō, illustrating the Battle of Nagashino in a popular woodblock-print style for general readers. The pages show armoured samurai in dense combat, with kanji captions and text columns filling the margins. A designer might take the bold black outlines, dynamic clustered figures, and cloud-like smoke bands that frame action scenes.
