{"product_id":"jizo-bosatsu-hanabusa-itcho","title":"Jizō Bosatsu - Hanabusa Itchō","description":"\u003cp\u003eA serene depiction of Jizō Bosatsu, the protector of travellers and children, seated upon a lotus throne in this traditional Edo period hanging scroll.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hanging scroll depicts Jizō Bosatsu, the protector of travellers and children, seated in a meditative posture upon a lotus throne. Hanabusa Itchō, a painter known for his departure from the rigid Kano school style, brings a refined sensibility to this religious subject. The figure of Jizō is rendered with calm, balanced proportions, holding the khakkhara staff in one hand and a flaming jewel in the other. The iconography follows traditional Buddhist conventions, yet the execution displays the artist's characteristic attention to line and colour harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe deity is framed by a golden mandorla, which provides a luminous backdrop to the serene facial features. Below the lotus base, stylised clouds drift, adding a sense of weightlessness to the composition. The colour palette relies on muted earth tones for the background, contrasted by the deep reds and greens of the robes and petals. The surrounding silk mount features a repeating pattern of trees, which provides a decorative border that complements the central figure without distracting from the devotional focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHanabusa Itchō was active during the Genroku era, a period of cultural expansion in Japan. While he is often associated with genre scenes of urban life, his religious works demonstrate a technical proficiency in traditional ink and colour techniques. This piece reflects the aesthetic values of the period, where clarity of line and symbolic precision were highly regarded. The work remains a clear example of the intersection between formal religious art and the individual style of a master painter. The preservation of the silk and the pigments allows for a detailed observation of the brushwork, particularly in the rendering of the robes and the delicate facial features of the Bodhisattva.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/white-robed-willow-kannon-suzuki-shuitsu\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eWhite-Robed Willow Kannon by Suzuki Shuitsu\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/rakan-keinin-sumiyoshi\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRakan by Keinin Sumiyoshi\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/collections\/hanabusa-itcho\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by Hanabusa Itchō →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hanabusa Itchō","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59475337642319,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59475365331279,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59475365364047,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59475365396815,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59475365429583,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59475365462351,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59475365495119,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59475365527887,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59475365560655,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59475365593423,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59475365626191,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59475365658959,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Jiz-Bosatsu_Poster_CompositorV1_1792152026508.jpg?v=1794448544","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/fr\/products\/jizo-bosatsu-hanabusa-itcho","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
