About this work
Jizo saves souls and those who pass away. Commissioning a portrait of Jizo was also considered propitious for a person’s ancestors. Jizo descends on a cloud and meets his devotees. Here he is shown in the usual way as an elegant, young monk, with a shaven head and richly decorated clothes.
