Description

Seated figure of Jizō Bosatsu with one leg pendent in a large zushi (shrine). Assembled woodblock technique (yosegi-zukuri). The figure has a delicate face with a crystal usnisa (byakugō) and clear sandō lines on the neck, and is depicted as a monk with shaven head (teihatsu), which is the standard iconography of Jizō. He is seated on an elaborate lotus pedestal. The ears are carved well and presented in detail, but without pierced earlobes. The mandorla, adornments (J. yōraku) such as the necklace, and the cintamani (J. nyoi hōju) are complete. The kesa is of elaborate design and mirrors the plentiful use of gold of the entire structure. The rather rigid impression of the statue itself  suggests the second half of the Edo period as its production date, yet the fine workmanship speaks for a private commission.
