EDITORS COMMENTS
Fukurokuju Writing with His Head" is an exquisite 1882 woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi. This artwork, part of the Sketches by Yoshitoshi series, showcases the deity Fukurokuju in a unique and intriguing pose. Fukurokuju, also known as the God of Happiness or the Bringer of Fortune, is one of the Seven Lucky Gods in Japanese mythology. In this print, he is depicted with his head bent forward, intently focused on writing with a calligraphy set. The deity is accompanied by three other figures – Taiso, the God of Long Life; Fuxing, the God of Longevity; and Sanxing, the Three Star Gods.
