絵本稗史小説 第13集

1921 · 博文館 · 60 pictures

This 1921 Japanese illustrated book, published by Hakubunkan, is a volume of the Ehon Haishi Shosetsu series, a reprint of Edo-period ehon picture-book narratives aimed at general readers. Its pictures are black-and-white woodblock-style scenes of interiors, gardens and figures in period dress, with text columns running beside the images, offering a designer examples of compact narrative panel layouts, dense hatched line work, and the use of speech-cloud text boxes.
