[絵本] 〔１〕 冠の松真土の夜暴動 後編下

武田交来 編, 大蘇芳年 画 · 1880 · 船津忠次郎 · 14 pictures

A Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Takeda Kōrai and illustrated by Ōsho Yoshitoshi, published in Japan in 1880 by Funatsu Tadajirō. Its woodblock-style pages pair dense columns of kana-and-kanji text with framed scenes of townspeople, a woman at a window, and a crowd sheltering under a cloth. A designer might take from them the rhythm of text blocks beside small figure vignettes, and the hatched line work that suggests crowds and night.
