Drawings Tagged as Awe-Inspiring - Beauty That Takes Your Breath Away

Have you ever seen something so beautiful that your first reaction was to let out a sigh? For over 10 years now, there have been many works on pixiv that have inspired that very reaction.

A special tag was created for this feeling using a portmanteau of fuu (ふう, lit. the sound of sighing) and utsukushii (美しい, lit. “beautiful”). Fans typically apply it to works they feel make good use of light and color, depict awe-inspiring scenery, or even include some beautiful characters.

How about you? Do any of the works below take your breath away?
