About the piece
Created around 1885 by Kanō Hōgai, a pivotal figure in the Meiji-era revival of Japanese art, this ink painting captures the primal energy of two dragons. The work demonstrates the master's exceptional control of the medium, transitioning from deep charcoal tones to soft, ethereal washes that create a dramatic sense of depth and movement in the celestial sky.
