Among the Four Heavenly Kings statues in the Todai-ji Temple's Kaidan-do Hall, the most popular is the statue of Virupaksha. It was also Virupaksha that photographer Taikichi Irie, who continued to photograph Buddhist statues in Nara, first captured. Many people have been captivated by his deep gaze and sense of melancholy. I purchased this at an antique shop in Nara City about 10 years ago. On the back of the mask, it reads: "Old Music Mask Research Institute, Made by Miyatake, March 1986." I have been displaying it on the wall of my Japanese-style room for many years, but I am putting it up for sale due to the reorganization associated with the renovation of my home. There is no box. Material is unknown. Approximately 29 cm in height. Approximately 559g in weight. Although it is very old, in my personal opinion, there are no noticeable stains or damage, and I believe it is a beautiful item.
