[絵本] 〔３〕 おはん長右衛門連理の糸

堤吉兵衛 編 · 1888 · 堤吉兵衛 · 5 pictures

A late nineteenth-century Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1888 by Tsutsumi Kichibei, presenting the story of Oham and Chōemon in woodblock-printed pages with text columns in Japanese script. The pages show robed figures in interiors and outdoor scenes, with bold black patterned kimono and striped garments that a designer might take from for graphic pattern work and compositional framing of text and image.
