絵本大和文庫
An 1888 Japanese illustrated book (ehon) compiled by the writer Kigyo Sanjin and issued by Igyokan, aimed at general Japanese readers of the Meiji period. Its pictures are woodblock-style black-and-white scenes of samurai, courtiers and performers in interiors and gardens, with bold line work and flat areas of black that a designer could draw on for graphic compositions, panel layouts and patterned costume.
