[絵本] 〔１９〕太閤記山崎合戦下

竹内栄久編, 梅堂国政画 · 1884 · 小森宗次郎 · 18 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) from 1884, compiled by Takeuchi Eiku and illustrated by Umedo Kunimasa, published by Komori Sojiro, retelling the Battle of Yamazaki from the Taikoki for a popular readership. The pages pair woodblock-style figures on horseback and in armour with dense columns of Japanese text, and a designer might take their bold black linework, sparse ground detail, and text-and-image page layouts.
