絵本鏡山
An 1890 Japanese ehon picture book published by Kinjudō and written by Maki Kinnosuke, a illustrated retelling of the Kagamiyama story in woodblock-style prints with running kana text. The four pictures show costumed figures in kimono indoors and at night, with a lantern, a window, and a standing attendant, drawn in bold black line and dense patterned textiles that a designer could borrow for pattern and figure composition.
