Nakamura Hōchū

Cleveland Museum of Art

Two-page spread from a book with tan, aged paper background. Left page has a simple line drawing of a curled up dog or animal with its head facing forward, outlined in gray with orange-brown fill. The animal has small, circular eyes and a small nose and mouth. Right page has a similar drawing of a curled up dog or animal with its head facing right, outlined in gray. The left side of the animal's body and head are shaded with black and gray gradations. The animal's eyes are closed, and its face is shaded white. The animal's body is covered with a curved line that forms a semi-circle. The drawings are likely illustrations from a children's book.
