The statue depicts Jizō (Ksitigarbha in Sanskrit), who in Japanese Buddhism is the bodhisattva of the earth, and is considered a protector of children and travelers. He is also a rescuer of beings in hell and is considered a guardian of souls for children that have died before their parents.[1] DescriptionJizō is garbed in traditional monk's attire, lacking ornate jewelry and adornments typically seen on images of Bodhisattvas.[2] He is shown in a standing position, with his right foot slightly forward, a common pose for this bodhisattva used to indicate his physical presence walking through the present world.[3] In his right hand Jizō carries a six ringed alarum staff, or khakkhara, used to warn insects of his presence, and in his left hand he carries a cintamani jewel, believed to light up the dark as well as grant wishes.[1] Below Jizō is situated an open lotus flower, a traditional Buddhist symbol of purity amidst the imperfections of the physical world.[4] StyleThe style of this statue is reflective of the transioning attitudes and ideals observed in the early Kamakura period.[2] During this time Japan faced a shift from the nobility that governed the late Fujiwara period to the "landowning military men" that seized power at the start of the Kamakura period.[5] Dramatic shifts in politics, society, and culture resulted in a transformation of artistic design, with focus placed heavily on realism and honesty. Additionally, the Kamakura era marked a turning point in religious activity, with Buddhism becoming more heavily practiced among the masses [5] Stylistically, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva (Jizō Bosatsu) reflects this shift towards Buddhism in its depiction of the Bodhisattva, as well as the realism of early Kamakura art in the "highly stylized geometric" shaping of the statue's head and torso.[2] AcquisitionA detailed history of this statue is unknown. The work has however been dated to approximately 1175; it was acquired through the Evans Woollen Jr. Memorial Fund in 1959.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{Citation|last =The Indianapolis Museum of Art|first =|author-link =Indianapolis Museum of Art|title =Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva (Jizō Bosatsu)|year =2012|url =http://www.imamuseum.org/collections/artwork/ksitigarbha-bodhisattva-jiz%C5%8D-bosatsu| accessdate =10 May 2012}} {{IMAart}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book|last=Day|first=Holliday T.|title=Indianapolis Museum of Art Collections Handbook|publisher=Indianapolis Museum of Art|location=Indianapolis|year=1988|isbn=0936260203}} 3. ^{{Citation|last =MIHO Museum|first =|author-link =Miho Museum|title =Standing Jizo Bosatsu (Ksitigarbha)|year =2009|url =http://www.miho.jp/booth/html/doccon/00000612e.htm| accessdate =10 May 2012}} 4. ^{{Citation|last=Smits|first=Gregory J.|title=Topics in Medieval Japanese History|year=1992|chapter =Chapter 9: Buddhist Iconography| chapterurl =http://www.personal.psu.edu/faculty/g/j/gjs4/textbooks/480/ch9.htm|accessdate =10 May 2012}} 5. ^1 {{Citation|last =The Metropolitan Museum of art|first =|author-link =Metropolitan Museum of Art|title =Kamakura and Nanbokucho Periods (1185–1392)|year =2000–2012|url =http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/kana/hd_kana.htm| accessdate =14 May 2012}} 4 : Indianapolis Museum of Art artworks|Buddhist sculpture|Japanese sculpture|Heian period |
