Netsuke of Daikoku and Bag
The image shows a small, dark brown statue of Daikoku, a Japanese deity, sitting cross-legged on the floor. The statue is made of wood and depicts Daikoku wearing a hat, a robe with wide sleeves, and sitting with his legs crossed. He has a large head, a round face, and a prominent nose. His facial expression is neutral. Daikoku's right hand rests on his knee, while his left hand touches a bag beside him. The bag is positioned on the ground beside his left leg and appears to be tied with a cord. The background of the image is light gray, with a subtle shadow cast by the statue. The overall style of the statue is traditional Japanese, specifically from the netsuke tradition.
