In a conflation of Buddhist and Shinto imagery, this portrait represents the god of the Wakamiya Shrine at Kasuga. The painting focuses on the ethereal form of Wakamiya, emphasizing the sanctity of the childlike figure who is seated on a pink-and-white lotus pedestal within a large circle. He wears a kimono and a sleeveless jacket with a design of cherry blossoms, butterflies, and swallows, suggestive of the elysian fields of Kasuga. The long sword in his hands symbolizes his honji, or Buddhist equivalent, the bodhisattva Monju (Sanskrit: Manjushri). Monju is often depicted as a youthful figure to represent the deity\u2019s immaculate knowledge.
