拍品描述
A POLYCHROME WOOD FIGURE OF KARITEIMO (HARITI), MUROMACHI PERIOD

Japan, 16th century, Muromachi period (1336-1573)

Finely painted in polychrome pigments and gesso, standing on a rockwork base on top of a stepped square pedestal, depicting Kariteimo (Hariti) cradling an infant child, the details finely carved, the eyes painted behind crystal or glass. The back inset with a metal halo.

HEIGHT total 44 cm

Condition: Good condition with some general and typical wear and few losses (notably to the halo and to the object formerly held in her hand), minor repairs and possibly few minuscule touch-ups.
Provenance: From an old Danish private collection, acquired in the 1960s.

Kariteimo (Hariti), was originally a fierce spirit who kidnapped children and fed them to her own offspring. After realizing the pain and suffering she has caused countless parents she converts to Buddhism and adopts the role of protector of all children.
