| Description |
This is an unfinished portrait study of Priest Seigen (1162–1231). The inscription identifies him as the abbot of Henchi-in, a subtemple of Daigo-ji in Kyoto. In 1203 he was appointed the 24th chief priest of Daigo-ji, one of the most influential Esoteric Buddhist temples in Japanese history. The blotches on the priest's face may have been caused by smallpox. |
