About the piece
Created circa 1870 by Nakajima Raishō, a prominent artist of the Kyoto Maruyama school, this work captures a needlefish (yagara) with remarkable precision. The dynamic, U-shaped composition and subtle tonal washes exemplify the school's focus on naturalism and observation during the late Edo and early Meiji periods.
