Iwao Akiyama has been lauded for his woodblock prints of both animals and human figures. This example depicts a peacock with outspread plumage and a red dot for an eye - the famous red dot being a signature motif of Akiyama's works, appearing somewhere in all of his works. Akiyama's son, Takahide Akiyama, has stated: "Frequently people think of the art of Iwao Akiyama as related to Folk Art.
