[絵本] 〔１９〕鎮西八郎為朝一代記上

荒川吉五郎編 · 1882 · 荒川吉五郎 · 17 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1882 by Arakawa Kichigorō, compiled by Arakawa, telling the life story of the warrior Chinzei Hachirō Tametomo in woodblock prints for a general readership. The pages pair full-length figure scenes with dense vertical Japanese text columns, so a designer can see how a narrative woodblock layout balances image and script.
