DiavoorstellingMonju on a Lion
401
82.0cm x 33.0cm
shūsei (? – ?)
Explore the impactful paintings of Kobayakawa Shūsei (1885-1974), a Japanese artist depicting wartime Japan & imperial art. Witness his unique style and historical significance.
Manjushri, the bodhisattva of wisdom known as Monju in Japan, sits cross-legged on the back of his lion vehicle. Monju appears as a youth in flowing robes, his hair worn long and loose; one of his attributes, a scepter, is placed casually on the ground before him. Although it is a decidedly carefree interpretation, the iconography seen here is consistent with works by painters affiliated with the Zen monastery Tōfukuji in Kyoto.
