[絵本] 〔９〕頼光一代記上

永島辰五郎編 · 1882 · 小森宗次郎 · 17 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) published in 1882 by Komori Sojiro, compiled by Nagashima Tatsugoro, retelling the life of the warrior Minamoto no Yorimitsu for a general readership. Its pictures show dynamic heroic combat in bold black-line woodcut style, with patterned kimono textures, swirling water, and dense calligraphic captions a designer could draw on for graphic energy.
