森本順三郎著 · 1888 · 森本順三郎 · 17 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) by Morimoto Junzaburo, published in 1888, telling the life of the warrior Minamoto no Yoshitsune in woodblock-printed pages with columns of kana text. The pictures show armoured samurai in battle, on boats and in mountain terrain, drawn in bold black outlines with dense patterned armour that a designer could use for dramatic historical scenes or graphic motifs.
