A LARGE PORTABLE SHRINE (ZUSHI) CONTAINING A GILT AND POLYCHROME WOOD FIGURE OF JIZO BOSATSU

Japan, 16th-17th century, late Muromachi (1333-1573) to early Edo period (1615-1868)

The exterior of the shrine of roiro with hinged doors and gilt-metal fittings chased and incised with floral and foliate designs, containing a finely carved sculpture of Jizo Bosatsu standing on a double lotus dais raised on square plinth surrounded by rockwork supported on a tiered square base. The bodhisattva is dressed in a long flowing robe applied with gilt and colored pigments as well as an ornamental necklace suspending small beads. He is holding the hoju (treasure jewel) in his left hand and the shakujo (staff) suspending loose rings in his right. His serene face with glass-inlaid eyes and byakugo (urna). The lotus dais is inset with a flattened post surmounted by a circular halo.

Condition: Good condition with some wear, minor age cracks, old repairs to hands and feet, flaking and small losses to lacquer, some with associated minor touchups.
Provenance: From a Hungarian private collection.

Jizo Bosatsu (Ksitigarbha) has been worshipped since the Heian period, particularly as the protector of children. This bodhisattva is a merciful figure who alone among Buddhist deities moves through the six worlds of illusion in his role of saving all sentient beings. As in this example he is usually depicted as a monk with the hoju (treasure jewel) and shakujo, a staff with a finial of rings which jingle to warn small creatures of his approaching footfalls.
