This 19th-century coat is decorated with a tiger and dragon motif. In Japanese lore, the tiger and dragon are the mightiest animals. During the peaceful Edo period, dragons were worshipped as water gods that could bring rain, prevent floods, and control the change of seasons. The dragon also represents wisdom and good luck; the tiger represents strength and courage.

Tapestry 7: The Unicorn in Captivity. This tapestry shows the unicorn alive and well, and entirely tamed. He is fenced in and chained to a tree, but the chain is less than secure and the fence is low enough to leap over. He has submitted to his captivity. The red stains on his flank, according to the Met, “do not appear to be blood, as there are no visible wounds like those in the hunting series; rather, they represent juice dripping from bursting pomegranates” — a medieval symbol of marriage and fertility. Many of the other plants represented here, such as wild orchid and thistle, echo this theme of marriage and procreation: they were acclaimed in the Middle Ages as fertility aids for both men and women.
