During the Kamakura period, the ancient temple of Shingon Buddhist school called the Great Buddy Temple, which was requested by Yoshikuni Giants in 1220. As there is Senbon Street crossing Kyoto to the north and south, it is familiar to the name of "Senbon Shakado" and has gathered a wide range of faiths from aristocrats to common people as the center of Buddha faith.
It is designated as a national treasure and its main hall, which has escaped numerous warfare including Nenin's turbulence, and also known as having a married couple and hypocrites such as husband and wife as birthplace of "Okame".

Following "Creation of sacred places – prosperity of Buddha faith" , Honbuds "Buddha Nyorai Seiza" and "Ten Great Disciple Statues", which are now set separately in the temple, are displayed in the same space. It is the first time that 10 Buddha Buddha seated statues and ten great disciple statues, which are open to the public several times a year, are released outside the temple.
In the first half of the thirteenth century when the Great Buddha was built, the revelations of "the last law" (era when enlightenment ceased) were felt strongly due to repeated war. Kaoru Kaito tried to create a place to save people living the world of the last law by building a Buddha who always lives in this world and tells him how to preach.

Exhibition work introduction
Important Cultural Property Senjo Kanon Bodhisattva Statue Heian era · Tenth century Great Tigers temple collection
A big buddhist temple that is in the center of Kyoto but leaves the war. To that end, many cultural properties that were contained in the surrounding old temples were gathered in Great Bounty Temple. Among them, this is a masterpiece of the Heian period "Senju Kannon Bodhisattva Statue". Representation of clothing called transverse wave clothing under the knee was prevalent in the early Heian period, which also shows that this work is before the establishment of Great Buddha Temple.

Important Cultural Property Associate Profound Sound Bodhisattva Statue (of Rokkoin Bodhisattva Statue) Hego Keio Structure Kamakura Era / 3rd Years (1224) Large Reigning Temple Collection
In the Rokkaon Bodhisattva statue there are relatively few examples Kannon (Jun) Kannon. It is a statue of a woman embodying the heart of mercy. It was revealed that the signature of "Independent Hego discrimination Keikei" was found in the ink story found in the statue, and it is a masterpiece of Keikei, a skillful buddhist of the next generation. In addition, although Kaya of a conifer is used as a six-sounding sound, this is because he is conscious of the "altarpiece" originally made of sandalwood.
I am amazed by the expression of very detailed details, such as the soft texture of the tied hair and the depiction of the clothes that scratch the air. Please come to the venue and enjoy the sculpture of Keikyu at hand!
It is also a big feature that the backlight and the pedestal are left as they are at the beginning of the image. Especially light hunting (one that embodies the light emitted by Buddha) is fragile because it is brittle, and it is very rare that things at the beginning of the image are completely left.
Also, the statue of Rokkaun Bodhisattva is a figure with a light till until October 28 (Sunday), from October 30 (Tue) of the late period, you can remove the light back, and you can appreciate its appearance as close as possible. It is an opportunity to enjoy the charm of Kannon from an angle different from usual, such as gently curved back curve and patterns of garment of elegant back.
Major masters that opened up the expression of the new era, Shinki and Chungkyeong. In the 1220s when the great temple was built, the two of them left the stage stage one after another, and it was an era when the next generation Buddhist tea ceremonies, such as Jeongjeong, began active. From the masterpiece of the gem which remains in Great Bounty Temple, you can feel the troubles of creation of such next generation Buddhists, trial and error, and the serious "form of prayer" of the people of those days.
The exhibition will be held from October 2 (Tuesday) to December 9 (Sun) in 2018.
Why do not you think about Kyoto in the Kamakura period at the venue where the Keishi "super stars" gather?
