Buddhist Pilgrimage Scroll
This magnificent Buddhist Pilgrimage Scroll (Nōkyō) is rare visual testament to a completed Japanese sacred journey, most likely the famous Shikoku 88 Temple route. These scrolls are often collected by pilgrims visiting temples and are later mounted as a spiritual reminder and a work of art. The large dimensions make it a striking focal point for a Tokonoma or a meditation space.
The scroll feature a central painted image of Kōbō Daishi (Kūkai) surrounded by dozens of hand-stamped vermilion seals and black calligraphy, each collected directly from a different temple. The impressive bold red and blue brocade silk mounting and ornate roller ends make it a stunning, high-quality spiritual art piece ready for display.This Kakejiku comes with its own storage box.
