Ōyō Sketchbook (Ōyō manga) : [volume 2]
Ōyō Sketchbook, volume 2, is a Japanese pattern-book of plant designs drawn by Ogino Issui and printed in Kyoto in 1903 by Yamada Unsōdō for artists and craftsmen. Its pictures are flat woodblock-style compositions of morning glories, bellflowers, clover and water plants in cream, indigo and muted grey, with stylized leaves and repeated stripes a designer could adapt into surface patterns, textiles or stencil motifs.
