TAMONTEN ZO (STATUE OF VAISRAVANA or BISHAMONTEN)

Comments
Wearing a helmet on the head, this statue is making its eyebrows stand on end and biting its low lip by the upper teeth, with fierce angry look on the face. It is standing on the rock with the left foot and is bending its right knee. Strength and dynamism is well expressed on this figure.
