Behold the bean. This is what art helps people to do...to be able to see what is in front of them every day in all its wonder. This image from the Library of Congress did not have much information attached...the date followed by a question mark, a description as an ink drawing, and a cross indexing into the Japanese collections. I tried reading the artist's signature and looking it up in a variety of spellings - with no luck.
At the bottom of this post is a full sized image so you can pretend you are an ant and take a nice relaxing walk up and down the stems and beans. Enjoy the gentle undulations over the ripening beans!
