[絵本] 〔９〕苅萱道心筑紫〔イエズト〕上

柳水亭種清編 · 1882 · 小林鉄次郎 · 29 pictures

An 1882 Japanese illustrated picture book (ehon) compiled by Ryūsuitei Tanesei and published by Kobayashi Tetsujirō, presenting a popular tale in woodblock-style prints with dense columns of text beside the figures. The pictures show elegantly dressed women and armoured warriors in patterned robes, with stylised hair, poses and kimono patterns that a designer could draw on for textile motifs, line-based figure work and the integration of calligraphic text with image.
