Kamigamo Shrine in Summer, 1860-1870. Creator: Mori Kansai
Kamigamo Shrine in Summer, 1860-1870. The Kamigamo Shrine is the oldest Shinto shrine in the former Japanese capital of Kyoto. It is dedicated to the deity Kamo-wake-ikazuchi, who appeared miraculously to a daughter of the ruling clan while she was performing a purification ritual in the Kamo River. The deity was initially enshrined at the top of Mount Ko, seen in the distance, but was transferred to this 7th-century building during the Heian period

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century print by Mori Kansai captures the enchanting beauty of Kamigamo Shrine in Kyoto, Japan during the summer months of 1860-1870. The oldest Shinto shrine in the former capital city, Kamigamo Shrine is dedicated to the deity Kamo-wake-ikazuchi, who appeared miraculously to a princess while she was performing a purification ritual in the Kamo River. The deity was originally enshrined atop Mount Ko in the distance, but was later transferred to the current 7th-century building during the Heian period. Mori Kansai masterfully depicts the serene atmosphere of the shrine and its surroundings, with the misty Kamo River winding through the lush greenery and the majestic pines and trees that frame the shrine's entrance. The elevated view from the paneled screen provides an atmospheric and mystical perspective of the sanctuary, with the misty mountains and the distant Tokugawa and Heian eras adding to the historic and cultural significance of the scene. The intricately detailed ink and gold wash on paper with hints of color perfectly captures the essence of this scenic and sacred location, transporting viewers to a time and place of tranquility and spiritual reflection. This beautiful work of art is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and its enduring connection to nature and religion.
