Influence


Is it just me, or does this lovely piece of Orientalism by Hiroshi Yoshida (1876-1950) (seen at my favorite site for affordable, almost-museum-quality Japanese prints, Carolyn Staley Prints) remind you too of P. Craig Russell's amazing work in Sandman #50, "Ramadan"?

Very cool. But check out how somebody has repurposed this stuff.

Actually, it reminds me very much of Hergé's work on Tintin.
