EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print showcases the seven revered deities of good fortune and prosperity in Japanese mythology, collectively known as the "Seven Gods of Good Luck." The image, believed to date back to around 1878, depicts Ebisu, Daikokuten, Bishamonten, Benzaiten, Fukurokuju, Hotei, and Jurojin, each seated in a serene circle. Ebisu, the god of fishermen and merchants, is shown holding a fishing rod and a sea bream. Daikokuten, the god of rice and prosperity, is often depicted with a large sack of rice over his shoulder and a rosary in his hand. Bishamonten, the god of war and protection, is shown with a spear and a banner bearing the character for victory. Benzaiten, the goddess of music, dance, and fertility, is depicted holding a musical instrument and a fan. Fukurokuju, the god of happiness and longevity, is shown with a long, knotted rope, symbolizing longevity, and a treasure jar. Hotei, the god of contentment and happiness, is often depicted with a large belly and a fan, symbolizing the spreading of good fortune. Jurojin, the god of longevity, is shown with a staff and a jade disk, symbolizing long life and good health. These seven deities have been revered in Japan for centuries, and their images have been featured in various forms of art, including woodblock prints, paintings, and sculptures. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this woodblock print serve as a testament to the enduring appeal and significance of these gods in Japanese culture.
