Product Description

Drago Nuovo by Francesco Ferrara turns a dragon, curling black waves, and gray clouds into a compact traditional Japanese-inspired tattoo composition. The dragon is one of tattooing’s most enduring subjects, and Ferrara keeps the focus on its coiled body, open mouth, claws, and patterned scales rather than treating it like a loose decorative study.

Black, gray, red, and ochre carry the whole print, with thick outlines and repeated scale shapes giving it a strong flash character. The red flame-like forms, cloud bands, and wave crests keep the surface busy without muddying the read, which gives the piece the feel of a vintage flash image tightened into a single dragon design. Francesco Ferrara keeps the old dragon subject direct and full of movement.
