Description:
"Ryu ni Oni" ("Dragon and Demon"). A demon is battling against a dragon using two swords. Black outlined tattoo in light green, blue and yellow colors on the back. In the Orient the dragon is not an evil creature but a mythical entity associated with the water and rain. Therefore, it was a favorite tattoo motif for firemen in Edo.
