Fudo Myoo stands upright with a searching look in the center of the painting with a kensaku (rope used for hunting and fighting) in his left hand, while eight boy attendants, who are kenzoku, are drawn in various forms on the cliffs. At the bottom left, the Kurikara Dragon Sword, a treasured sword intertwined with Kurikara Dragon (a transformation of Fudo Myoo), is fixed to the ground with its point directed upward. This painting of the eight boy attendants remains treasured as the principal image illustrating the rising of Inunaki Fudo. The red seal affixed at the top left can be read as “Tobai,” which demonstrates that the painting is the work of the painter named Tobai. Born in Chikugo (current southern part of Fukuoka Prefecture), Tobai practiced at Mt. Koya and learned to become a painter under Sesshu Toyo. This work features a delicate touch, with gold paint used in various parts, while the roughness unique to the works in the Muromachi period (1336-1573) can also be found in the finish of the silk and coloring.
