"Blind monks examining an elephant", an 1888 ukiyo-e print by Hanabusa Itchō

This is a high-quality scan of an ukiyo-e depicting one of the central ideas of Anekantavada Jainism. It illustrates three articles and could easily illustrate a third.

  • I'm not totally convinced by the restoration (the hue is off—note the calibration sheet on the unrestored version, which indicates that it should be very slightly warmer, not cooler). Still, it has good encyclopedic value for Blind Men and an Elephant, and the overall quality is excelent. I'd give it a nomination. Thegreenj 21:09, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
