Japanese guard meaning

The dragon ridge represents the dragon's back, authority and dignity.

Dragon Ridge is a traditional Japanese tattoo. The pattern is a woman with a dragon tattooed on her back, representing authority and dignity. It usually appears on her back, arms or calves. Japanese tattoos were first tattooed on her face, about 300 BC. Legendary heroes and warriors often have patterns such as carp and dragon and tiger tattooed on them. These patterns are often surrounded by regular waves (that is, board fog), stripes and flowers (including cherry blossoms, chrysanthemums and peony flowers), mostly in Faust painting style.
