EDITORS COMMENTS
Ship of Good Fortune: A Venerated Symbol of Japanese Religion and Prosperity This evocative image depicts the Ship of Good Fortune, a revered symbol in Japanese culture and religion. The Ship, also known as the Treasure Ship or the Ship of Seven Gods of Fortune (Shichifuku-jin), is a common motif found in countless Japanese homes. The seven gods aboard the vessel are believed to protect against misfortune and ensure prosperity in all aspects of life. The Ship of Good Fortune originated from ancient Chinese mythology, but it gained significant popularity in Japan during the Edo period (1603-1868). The seven gods, collectively known as the Shichifuku-jin, are represented by the following deities: Ebisu (god of fishermen and business), Daikokuten (god of rice and wealth), Benzaiten (goddess of music, arts, and good fortune), Fukugen Myoo (god of longevity), Hotei (god of contentment and happiness), Jurojin (god of longevity and good fortune), and Bishamonten (god of war and guardian of the north). The Ship of Good Fortune is a powerful reminder of the deep-rooted belief in the power of deities to protect and care for people's lives. The presence of this iconic image in homes serves as a constant source of comfort and reassurance, offering the promise of good fortune and the alleviation of troubles. The Ship's enduring appeal can be attributed to the universal human desire for happiness, prosperity, and protection from misfortune. This photograph, taken from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural significance of the Ship of Good Fortune. It serves as a testament to the enduring influence of Japanese religion and the deep connection between the people and their gods.
