Dragon Attack!

Black and white scrimshaw on ancient mammoth ivory by Michael Cohen. Great composition by Cohen with the shape of the mammoth ivory resembling the top of a mountain. The endangered castle is under attack by a fearsome dragon, while in the foreground an attractive woman glances over her shoulder. Is she the dragon’s master or the castle’s hope of salvation? Impressive detail from the intricate woman’s jewelry to the pattern in the castle’s walls. Great piece at a very reasonable price.
