The artwork, titled “Untitled,” is created by the artist Toshio Saeki, a prominent figure within the Ero guro art movement. This piece falls under the genre of manga, a distinctive style of Japanese comic art.
The artwork presents a monochromatic scene rendered in intricate black and white. In the foreground, a young girl kneels, holding a bridle made of an animal while another child, positioned to her right, embraces the head of what appears to be a model or drawing of a horse. To the left, a hooded figure, draped in traditional attire, rides an animal reminiscent of a camel. The background features two adults, engaged in some form of conversation or interaction, under the illumination of a full moon. The composition is surrounded by detailed botanical elements, contributing to the overall surreal and eerie atmosphere that characterizes the Ero guro movement. The artist’s signature is visible in the lower right corner, further authenticating the piece.
