This 17th century print depicts Joosje Goezar, also known as the King of the Devils, a fascinating figure revered in Japanese religion and folklore. The exact origins of this enigmatic character are shrouded in mystery, with some sources suggesting he may have originated from European folklore or even been a local Japanese deity. Regardless of his origins, Joosjar Goezar became an integral part of Japanese religious practices, particularly in the realms of Shinto and Buddhism. The image showcases Joosje Goezar in all his regal splendor, seated on a throne surrounded by attendant demons and other mythical creatures. His imposing figure, adorned with intricate tattoos and adorned with jewels, exudes an aura of power and authority. The devotees before him, with hands pressed together in prayer, demonstrate their deep reverence for this lord of the underworld. The print, which dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), is a testament to the rich and complex religious traditions of Japan during this time. Despite the passage of centuries, the image retains a powerful allure, offering a glimpse into the beliefs and practices of a culture that continues to fascinate and inspire. The intricate details of the print, from the delicate lines of the tattoos to the intricate patterns of the robes, are a testament to the skill and artistry of the Japanese printmakers of the time.
