This print captures the mythical Japanese Giant Carp, a creature of legend that strikes fear into the hearts of those who hear its tale. In this particular story, O Tsuru stumbles upon the carcass of a giant carp washed up on the shore of Lake Biwa - a monstrous beast known for devouring dogs, cats, and even unsuspecting swimmers.
The image transports us back to 1908, when folk tales and superstitions held great power over people's imaginations. The historical significance of this moment is palpable as we witness O Tsuru's shock at encountering such a fearsome creature in real life.
The sheer size and detail captured in this print bring to life the terror that must have gripped those who believed in the existence of this monster. The dark waters of Lake Biwa serve as an ominous backdrop to this chilling scene, emphasizing the danger that lurks beneath its surface.

The legacy of legends like the Japanese Giant Carp lives on through works like these, preserving their place in our collective imagination for generations to come.
