[Description]
The Oni no Kannenbustu (Demon Chanting Buddhist Prayers in the Cold) from Otsu-e is a representative motif of folk art that has been painted in the Otsu City area of Shiga Prefecture since the Edo period.
It depicts a demon dressed in monk's robes, with a gong hanging from its neck, holding a clapper and a ledger in its hands, walking while chanting Buddhist prayers in the cold.
It comes with a special black bamboo case and is a truly wonderful piece as a work of art and craft.
