EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century ivory carving depicts the gods Daikoku and Ebisu, revered in Japanese culture as the deities of wealth and commerce. Daikoku, represented here with a large belly and a sack over his shoulder, symbolizes the abundant storage of rice and other grains. He is often depicted holding a mallet and a rice paddle, as seen in this close-up image. Ebisu, shown with a fish and a fishing rod, represents the prosperity of the fishing industry and the abundance of fish. Both gods are dressed in colorful clothing, with Daikoku wearing a traditional Japanese hat and Ebisu wearing a headdress adorned with a fish. This hand-carved ivory figure with staining sumi (ink) is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship of the 18th century in Asia. The gods are shown in a playful scene, with Daikoku holding up Ebisu as if to wrestle or tease him. This image, now housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the importance of the seven gods of fortune in Japanese religion and folklore.
