[絵本] 〔２〕思案橋暁天奇聞初編下

岡本起泉編 · 1882 · 金松堂 · 23 pictures

This Meiji-era Japanese illustrated book (ehon), compiled by Okamoto Kisen and published in Tokyo by Kinshōdō in 1882, was a popular fiction volume for general urban readers of the period. Its pictures are woodblock-style line drawings framed by columns of Japanese text, showing seated figures in kimono and interior settings with shoji screens, with simple hatched patterns and bold outlines that a designer could use as reference for early modern Japanese print composition and page layout.
