[絵本] 〔4〕 鬼神於松笠松奇談 上

竹内栄久 編, 梅堂国政 画 · 1884 · 小森宗次郎 · 20 pictures

An 1884 Japanese ehon picture book published by Komori Sōjirō, with text compiled by Takeuchi Eiku and illustrations by Umedō Kunimasa, printed in woodblock-style black and white. Its pages show kimono-clad figures in courtyard and interior scenes, with dense vertical columns of Japanese text beside them, offering a designer a sense of traditional Edo-style figure composition and text-image layout.
