Illustration of the Amitayurdhyana Sutra
KOREA; Joseon dynasty (1392–1910), dated 1576; Ink and color on silk; 105.8 x 56.8 cm; Seizan Bunko Museum, Takaoka, Japan
An inscription written in Chinese script at the top of this illustration states that it was painted in 1576 in Korea and is a reproduction of an older work. The original painting became dampened and damaged, so two nuns repainted it with support from King Seonjo (reigned 1568-1608), and dedicated it to King Seonjo and his family.
