[絵本] 〔１〕伊達評定実記３号

永島辰五郎編 · 1882 · 小森宗次郎 · 18 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Nagashima Tatsugoro and published by Komori Sojiro in 1882, aimed at general readers of popular fiction. Its woodblock-printed pages pair dense columns of Japanese kana text with full-page scenes of samurai in patterned kimono, sometimes in tense confrontations or quiet interiors. A designer might take the strong black-and-white contrast, the interplay of crowded text blocks with figures, and the dense repeated kimono patterns as graphic references.
