[絵本] [2]朝がほ物語
An 1882 Japanese ehon picture book titled Asagao monogatari, compiled by Kimura Bunzaburo and published by Kimura himself, aimed at general readers. Its woodblock-style illustrations show kimono-clad figures on verandas and gardens beside columns of vertical Japanese text set in cartouches. A designer might take the panel layout, the text boxes framing figures, and the patterned kimono textures.
