Daibutsu (the Great Buddha),Ueno

The Great Buddha of Ueno is said not to have been as handsome as its counterpart in Kamakura, but it looks quite good from this angle. Here it still has the halo behind its head. It is not clear when the halo was removed, although it is gone in a postcard from 1912. Thus, it could have been removed at the end of the Meiji Period. Probably taken between 1892 and 1897. The same as photograph #2618.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number53‐34‐2]
