Unfortunately, I can't find any information about this image, so I don't know who the artist is, when this was created, or where the landscape is (although I'd guess at Eastern Europe based on the architecture style visible in the distance). If anyone has more experience than me at figuring these things out, I'd love to know more!

I am a big fan of Letty Wilson (toadlett)'s work: their webcomic Owl People is amazing, as is her one-shot comic The Beechwood Helm. I just generally love all their illustrations.
One of the cool perks of supporting Letty on Patreon is that you get a custom monster drawing! Mine recently levelled up and became more monstrous [note: I think this may have changed and the yearly levelling-up is no longer part of the membership perks, but you still get a custom monster!], and I wanted to share it in all its glory. I haven't given it a name yet—suggestions welcome!

My very first post on cohost was a rechost on 01 Dec 2022 from the account public domain lover (publicdomaintreasures), who, as the name suggests, posted interesting public domain images. As far as I know, they haven't started up the account anywhere else, but you can check out their personal collection of images on their website.
These are woodblock prints by kachō-e artist Ohara Koson. According to Ronin Gallery, the first print is from around 1910, and the second is from around 1912.
