Blade of the Immortal

This is definitely not a version of Bob's work. The idea and setting come from a Japanese film called (Ready?) "Blade of the Immortal". This was a scene where the main character and his ward were standing there. I left them out of the composition, with my stellar ability to paint the human figure. To note is the experiment done in the upper right - that is gold leaf burnished over the Kanji letter for "Blade".
