This masterpiece from the Kamakura period is highly popular among Buddhist statue enthusiasts, and there have been many requests for it to be produced by Isumu. The realistic figure, with its brilliant detail, has been carefully reproduced. You can fully appreciate the figure of Kūya Shōnin, who seems as if he could start walking at any moment, conveying his strong will. With a total of 18 parts packed into just 18 centimeters, this is the most intricately assembled sculpture in the series. The most distinctive feature, the six Amida Buddhas emanating from his mouth, were made from carefully selected materials, and through meticulous work that allowed for no error whatsoever, a sculpture that captures even Kūya's soul has been completed. This is the first portrait sculpture in the Isumu series, completed with all the skills the craftsmen possess. The model is the Important Cultural Property "Standing Statue of Kūya Shōnin". During the Heian period, when an epidemic was rampant, Kūya built a temple to save the people, and after Kūya's death, the statue was enshrined there. It is said to be the work of Kōshō, the fourth son of the renowned Buddhist sculptor Unkei. This masterpiece of Kamakura period portrait sculpture is so meticulously crafted that it appears almost alive, realistically capturing even the spirit of Kuya, who lived for "the salvation of the people" and "prayer for salvation." Kuya was a monk who was active during the Heian period and dedicated himself to the salvation of ordinary people by chanting the Buddhist mantra "Namu Amida Butsu," earning him the title of "Saint of the Market." He is known as (or similar names). He is famous as a pioneer of folk Pure Land Buddhism, but his origins remain shrouded in mystery.
