맨 나뭇가지 위의 긴귀부엉이 by Ohara Koson, 1900 - 1930

Perched high on a gnarled, leafless branch, a long-eared owl stares down with intense, wide orange eyes, seemingly unbothered by the crescent moon glowing below. Ohara Koson was a master of the shin-hanga movement who was absolutely obsessed with birds, often studying them in zoos and the wild to capture their exact personalities. This moody, atmospheric print perfectly captures the quiet mystery of a night watch, proving that sometimes the best art comes from just sitting still and watching nature.
