Blind monks and an elephant
A Japanese woodblock print in the ukiyo-e style of blind monks examining an elephant. Originating from India, the story tells of a group of blind men who touch an elephant to learn what it is like. Each one touches a different part, but only one part. They then compare notes on what they felt, and learn they are in complete disagreement.Artist: Hanabusa Itchō
