Illustrated Book of Humorous Poems "Mountain on Mountain" (Ehon Kyōka yama mata yama 絵本狂歌山満多山) : [volume 1]
An 1803 Japanese illustrated volume of kyōka humorous poems by Katsushika Hokusai, published by Kōshodō (Tsutaya Jūzaburō) in Edo for a popular reading public. Its double-page spreads pair woodblock-printed scenes of travellers, townswomen and rural landscapes with columns of poem text in the margins, so a designer can draw on its compact figure groupings, sparse landscape settings and the integration of calligraphic text with image.
