Catalog note / 解説

The Star of Wisdom descends on the thirteenth night of the ninth month. Nichiren (holding his rosary) stands before an old plum tree in which appears a shining apparition of the Buddha; behind him are two officials and a group of armed men. The full moon of evening bathes the entire scene. (from Pathway exhibition 1/29/08-)
