Traditional Japanese Irezumi Tattoo

This tattoo exemplifies the traditional Japanese Irezumi style, known for its large scale, intricate details, and symbolic imagery. The design appears to incorporate elements of nature (likely koi fish, dragons, or flowers) rendered with bold outlines and meticulous shading.

The full sleeve placement allows for a complex narrative to unfold across the arm, demonstrating mastery of composition and line work. Irezumi tattoos often carry deep cultural significance and personal meaning.
