[絵本] 〔２４〕佐野鹿十郎英雄伝下

荒川吉五郎編 · 1882 · 荒川吉五郎 · 19 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1882 by Arakawa Kichigorō, presenting a hero tale of Sano Shikujūrō in woodblock prints framed by columns of kana text. The pictures show samurai in patterned kimono and hakama fighting with swords and staves, with the printed names set beside the figures, offering a designer strong examples of dynamic action composition, bold black-and-white line work, and dense textual framing.
