Description
This work is designed the natural figure of pigeon on the tiled roof. It is excellent that the soft overlap of the feather is a beautiful contrast to the hardness of the roof tile. This work is used the most difficult techniques of iron embossment from a tin iron sheet without a good extensible. Especially no one but YAMADA Sobi can make the broad expanse of the iron sheet to the roof tile from the wrung iron part at the abdominal part of the pigeon.
