Picture Album of the Floating World (Ukiyo efu) 浮世画譜

The image shows two pages from an old book opened to reveal illustrations. The pages are yellowed with age and have a slight brown tint. The left page features a drawing of a large bird with a long neck and legs standing on the ground, facing right; it has a long beak pointed upwards. The bird appears to be standing in front of a tree. The right page depicts a man on horseback wearing a conical hat and carrying a long-handled tool. He rides to the right through vegetation under a tree. Both drawings appear to be in black and white with some color added. The background behind the pages is white.
