EDITORS COMMENTS
Ebisu, the God of Plenty and Daily Food, is one of the most beloved deities in Japanese religion and folklore. Depicted here in this historical photo print, Ebisu is shown with a full basket, symbolizing his role as the provider of abundant food, particularly fish and seafood. The red-skinned tai, a favorite seafood in Japan, is prominently displayed in his basket. Ebisu is often depicted as a jovial and generous figure, with a rosy complexion and a fishing rod in hand. He is believed to have originated from the fishing communities of Enoshima Island in the early Heian period (794-1185 AD). Over time, Ebisu became a popular household god, and his worship spread beyond the fishing communities to become a widespread practice in Japan. The basket filled with fish and seafood is a symbol of Ebisu's abundance and generosity. The red color of the tai represents good fortune and prosperity in Japanese culture. Ebisu's popularity as a household god continued through the Edo period (1603-1868 AD) and beyond, and his image could be found in many Japanese homes, temples, and shrines. This print offers a glimpse into the rich history of Japanese religion and folklore, showcasing the enduring significance of Ebisu as the God of Plenty and Daily Food. The image of Ebisu with his basket of fish and seafood continues to be a beloved symbol of abundance, prosperity, and good fortune in Japanese culture.
