Netsuke of Two Figures and a Dragon
A carved wooden sculpture titled "Netsuke of Two Figures and a Dragon" by an unknown artist. The sculpture depicts two men and a dragon. The dragon is carved with scales along its body and curved in a partial loop. The dragon's head is on the left and its body extends up and over the two men positioned on the right. One man sits cross-legged on the ground with his hands on his knees. He wears a short-sleeved top. The second man sits on the ground leaning on his left arm with his right forearm across his body. He appears to wear a robe with long sleeves. The sculpture appears to be made from a light-colored wood with visible grain and texture. The background is a plain gray color with a subtle shadow underneath the sculpture.
