Drawings by the Drunken Fuyō (Gazu sui Fuyō 画図酔芙蓉)
A woodblock-printed Japanese picture book of 1809 by Suzuki Fuyō, published in Edo by Suharaya Ihachi and Seireikaku, presumably for painters and connoisseurs. Its double-page spreads show ink landscapes of mountains, waterfalls, pine-covered cliffs, pavilions, and lakes drawn in fine, varied outline with light shading. A designer could take its economical contour line and the layered mist and rock forms as models for minimal landscape motifs.
