[絵本] 〔１〕五人殲苦魔物語初編上

柳水亭種清編 · 1882 · 小林鉄次郎 · 17 pictures

This Japanese illustrated book (ehon) was compiled by Ryūsuitei Tanesey, published by Kobayashi Tetsujirō in 1882, and seems aimed at general readers of popular fiction. Its woodblock-style pictures show seated and standing figures in kimono within interiors, with columns of hand-written kana text running beside them, offering a designer strong examples of dense black-and-white line work and calligraphic framing.
