Leggende illustrate del santuario di Kitano dedicato a Tenjin
Giappone
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 223
Il santuario di Kitano Tenjin a Kyoto è dedicato allo studioso e statista del IX secolo Sugawara Michizane (845 - 903 ). Michizane morì in esilio, dove si trovava a causa delle calunnie dei suoi nemici a corte. In seguito però una serie di disastri e calamità causò la morte prematura dei suoi denigratori. Lo spirito di Michizane espresse il desiderio di essere custodito in un reliquiario nella zona nordoccidentale della capitale. Oggi è venerato come il dio dello studio e della calligrafia del culto shintoista.
