Myriad of Hotei

More than 120 Hotei and 50 Chinese children playing various games are depicted with superior expression of figure groups. It was painted by Kawanabe Kyoun (1860/63-1908) commissioned by Emperor Meiji. The mount was prepared at the Imperial Household Ministry, combining various refined textiles such as shokkokin.(「Passing Down Masterpieces」2020)
