Preparatory sketch
Ishibashi Kazunori
National Museums Liverpool
United Kingdom
Painters in Japan were never able to observe real tigers, and so they produced images based on tiger skins and observations of pet cats. In this drawing, Ishibashi has managed a convincing tiger, but the shape of the shoulders is rather strange, the typical problem when basing the body on a flaccid skin.
