The subject of this work is derived from the famous Noh play Shakkyo (Stone Bridge), story of monk Jakusho visiting the Buddhist sites in India and China. The play highlights the performance of two lions, messengers of the bodhisattva Monju (Monjusri), playing among peonies and celebrating Jakusho’s arrival to the bodhisattva’s Pure Land through a narrow stone bridge.
