Dressed in official court costume he is holding a ceremonial sceptre in front of his chest. The difference in size between the father and the sons, underscores the importance of Kamatari as a Shintô deity. The picture type is also known as the mandala of the Tônomine shrine, where Kamatari was buried and where a wooden statue of him was venerated as the seat of his soul. It was believed that whenever the deity was dissatisfied with the political situation, cracks would appear, portending imminent disaster for the ruler. |
