[絵本] 〔４〕幻阿竹噂之聞書３編中

岡本起泉 (勘造) 編, 芳川春濤閲 · 1882 · 島鮮堂 · 17 pictures

An 1882 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) published by Shimasendō, compiled by Okamoto Kisen with revision by Yoshikawa Shuntō, presenting a serialized Edo-style tale in woodblock print with dense columns of text beside the figures. The four pictures show seated and standing male figures in patterned kimono amid screens, bamboo, and household objects, drawn in bold black outline with sparse hatching, which a designer might take as a model for economical line work and patterned textile motifs.
