The Two Venerable Images of Buddha,Sensoji Temple

These two statues were built by Takase Zenbei of Tatebayashi by order of Ota Kyuemon Masayoshi and donated to Sensoji Temple in 1687. Standing 2.5 meters tall including the lotus base, the statues are usually referred to as Nurebotoke (Wet Buddha). They survived the Great Earthquake of 1923 and also the air raids of 1945, but the Main Hall, Niomon, and Sutra Repository were all destroyed in the latter.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number51‐40‐0]
