綱島亀吉編 · 1885 · 綱島亀吉 · 19 pictures

This is a Meiji-era Japanese illustrated book (ehon) compiled by Tsunajima Kamekichi and published by him in 1885, aimed at general readers and telling a heroic tale. Its pictures are woodblock-style prints with bold black outlines, patterned kimono and hakama, and captioned panels showing samurai in dramatic poses; a designer might take its strong figure silhouettes, decorative textile patterns, and vertical text-and-image layouts.
