Here's a gorgeous image. It's by #Japanese printmaker #Hiroshige #Utagawa from 1856 and is called "Jūmantsubo Plain at Fukagawa Susaki" from his series of "100 Famous Views of Edo". But I've always just called it 'eagle & snow'.

I've had a poster of this woodblock print in my bedroom since 1984 & I wake up to it every morning.

Composed with such economy, to my eyes it's almost perfect.
