UNCLE HAYATO'S ART CORNER (Sort of...)
Today we present "Flying Batsand the Full Moon by Ohara Kosnn, dated c. 1930 depicting four bats flying on a full moon night. The old name of the bat was "henfuku", which containted the word, "fuku" (happiness). Therefore, a bat was considered as a lucky symbol in Japan.
Two of the bats in this scene appear to be a bit more batty than the others but they are definitely "fuku"...
