Lot details Japan, 18th century, Edo period (1615-1868) Finely cast as a zushi (travelling shrine) and patinated to a silverish tone, superbly carved in relief with an Amida Triad with Kannon and Seishi, each standing on lotus pedestals and framed by images of seated Buddhas amidst foliate designs and clouds, and with two worshippers below presenting offerings. The reverse with a superb, naturally grown patina. HEIGHT 9.9 cm WEIGHT 150.7 g Condition: Very good condition with minimal wear and few casting irregularities. Provenance: From an Irish private collection. The present bronze zushi is superbly cast in the style of the 18th century, being more or less an exact copy, save for the addition of the two worshippers below, of the Amida Triad, Maedachi Honzon, in the Zenkoji temple. The Maedachi Honzon is a duplicate of the 6th century central image of the Zenkoji temple, which are the first images of Buddha brought to Japan from the Korean Kingdom of Kudara.
