Series; History Pictures (Rekishi-e), 1896
Dog: Samurai Spying on the Enemy Lines with His Pet Dog - Handsome image of a warrior on horseback outside a castle as he spies on the enemy's lines, his pet dog running in front of his mount. He wears full armor and carries a naginata, his horse in armor as well. A full moon glows in among dark clouds overhead, two other samurai below seen in shadow. A great atmospheric design.
