Chang’e Flying to the Moon - Classic Ukiyo-e Print by Toyohara Chikanobu #142339 (License: Personal Use)

This late 19th-century woodblock print by Toyohara Chikanobu illustrates the myth of Chang’e, the Chinese moon goddess, depicted in elegant Heian-inspired robes with intricate floral and cloud motifs. She floats above turbulent waves and clouds, cradling a small jar-the elixir of immortality-while a stylized dragon coils beneath her, its body adorned with green and gold patterns. The composition blends Chinese mythology with Japanese ukiyo-e aesthetics, reflecting cross-cultural storytelling during the Meiji period.
