絵本難波戦記稚話 2編
This is a Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Ban Genpei and published in 1886 by Akashi Chūgadō, presenting warrior portraits drawn from the Naniwa battle chronicles for young readers. The pictures show armoured samurai in full figure, each framed in ornate scroll borders with vertical cartouches naming the warrior, and a designer might take from them the dense patterned lacquer-like armour, the tight black-and-white hatching, and the layout of text panels beside figures.
