[絵本] 〔２〕日月星享和政談下

松村漁夫編, 梅堂国政画 · 1879 · 大倉孫兵衛 · 17 pictures

A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1879 by Okura Magobei, compiled by Matsumura Gyofu and illustrated by Umedo Kunimasa, likely for a general readership of popular fiction. Its woodblock-style pages pair dense columns of Japanese text with figures in patterned kimono, showing samurai-era costume, poses and textile patterns a designer could draw on for stripes, checks and kimono motifs.
