[絵本] 〔８〕世響太鼓功

武田交来 (勝次郎) 編, 梅堂国政画 · 1881 · 大倉孫兵衛 · 15 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1881 by Ōkura Magobei, compiled by Takeda Kōrai with illustrations by Umedō Kunimasa, aimed at a general reading public. Its pages are woodblock-style black-and-white prints with dense columns of Japanese text set around figures in patterned costume. Designers might draw on the bold crests, kimono patterns and tightly framed scenes of samurai and women, along with the way text and image share the page.
