Inspired by Ukiyo-e Japanese woodblock print
Tiger by Utagawa Sadahide とら - 歌川 貞秀
Original ukiyo-e prints are the trio with two tigers and dragon which is the imaginary fight between the two auspicious animals representing the sky (dragon) and the earth (tiger). Whenever the dark clouds appear and the strong wind blows, the legend says the two are fighting (none of them wins, however). The publisher indicated that their skillful artists took 18 months of engraving and 3 months of printing to make this dynamic masterpiece back to the modern time.
