An avian drama plays out near the water\u2019s edge as a dark-colored eagle pursues a white swan, and this sudden disturbance in the sky creates a commotion among the smaller creatures, including black myna birds and a duck. Modeled after a Chinese painting of the Ming era (1368\u20131644), when this particular subject was popular, the unknown artist of this painting most likely followed the example of one of Japan\u2019s favorite Chinese artists\u2014perhaps Ling Liang (act. 15th century)\u2014using dark, broadly applied ink to cursorily define the rocks and introduce the agitated movements of the animals. The early-summer hibiscus offers viewers a respite in this scene of struggle.
