Goddess Riding a Dragon, from Hokusai's Picture Book of Realistic Paintings
A robed female figure with a haloed head sits atop a scaly, clawed dragon amid swirling clouds, one hand raised holding a fan-like object. Muted gray-green ink and pale pink washes shape the drapery and sky against a plain background, with the figure framed by a border.
