Description

The Tokoin Buddhist Art Gallery at Fukuoka Art Museum presents wooden Buddhist sculptures formerly preserved at Yakuomitsuji Tokoin in Yoshizuka, Hakata. The collection includes a seated wooden Yakushi Nyorai and statues of the Twelve Divine Generals designated Important Cultural Properties of Japan, giving visitors an opportunity to view significant Buddhist carvings. The gallery allows close attention to differences in the forms and expressions of sculptures from the Heian and Kamakura periods. Works rotate in the 2026–27 exhibition, so visitors seeking a particular statue should check the exhibition checklist and display dates.
