Wicked nice woodcut

April 23, 2007 2:51 PM

Looking for name of (and hopefully high res scan) of a Japanese woodcut print I saw recently at Monet's house in Giverny. It was a vertically tall picture with what looked like some sort of bird of prey (hawk or falcon) at the top swooping in at the top of the frame. The image was also sold as a print at the gift shop.

Thanks I'm hoping to have this image etched on my Mac book Pro!

I wouldn't know a high res scan if I stepped on it but maybe this will get you started.
