Explores the stories behind sculptural and painted images of Jizo to reveal a fascinating cultural history. Employing the methodologies of the early twentieth-century renegade art historian Aby Warburg, Glassman's focus on the visual culture of medieval Japanese religion is not concerned with the surface form or iconographical lineages of Jizo's images, but with the social, ritual, and narrative contexts that bring the icons to life.
