Nyoirin Kannon and Nidoji : Buddhist Art on First Public Display

Hanzomon Museum
Finished
In conjunction with the special exhibition, two Heian period Buddhist statues from Daigo-ji Temple in Kyoto will be added to the permanent exhibition area "World of Prayers." The seated statue of Nyoirin Kannon Bosatsu is a valuable example dating back to the mid-Heian period, around the 10th century. Recent restoration work has revealed its original appearance. The standing statues of Two Attendants are elegant works created around the late 11th century to early 12th century.

Additionally, the special exhibition area will showcase newly unveiled scriptures, sculptures, and paintings, including the Fourteen Sounds and Meanings of the Lotus Sutra, a Tathagata image from the Northern Qi period, and the Tamamushi Mandala.
