The Spread and Influence of the Fish Basket Kannon in Early Edo Japan and the East Asian Maritime World
Get PDFThe Fish Basket Kannon (Gyoran Kannon, Ch. Yú lán Guānyīn) is an original Chinese form of Kannon that played a significant role in the feminization of Avalokiteśvara. A new version of this Kannon arrived in Japan around the beginning of the Edo period, influencing popular beliefs.
The purpose of this paper is to clarify the process by which this new female Kannon took root in Japan by examining the iconographic characteristics and legends associated with extant Fish Basket Kannon statues and similar Buddhist images.
The survey revealed that the Chinese Fish Basket Kannon developed a distinctive set of visual characteristics, including everyday clothing, a high coiffure, bare feet, a fish basket, and glimpses of jewelry. This expression of feminine beauty, originating in China, is also commonly observed in Buddhist statues in Japan. Additionally, the legends surrounding these statues indicate that they were brought to Japan via Nagasaki during this period. In other words, the feminized Kannon statue circulated within Japan, contributing to new developments in folk beliefs.
The existence of these feminized Buddhist statues in Japan serves as evidence that, even during the period of national isolation known as sakoku, Japan maintained connections with the East Asian maritime world.departmental bulletin pape
