I changed one of the images to a brown tone. I am going to do a separate entry on this image. I will suggest several lines of inquiry. Thanks for the help. Do you have links to Nichiren Shoshu sites about this or other images of Nichiren?

In real life when you view it it is very brown and almost impossible to detect anything I am afraid.
Next time I attend Omushibarai I wil try and see it better.
I did think it was done during the Daishonin's lifetime but I cn't remember off the top of my head. I have somewhere a sheet with all the info I received about it at Omushibarai-e but would have to search for it.

Thank you Jussi. Do you know who made them? They are like the Mizukagami Portrait, with different details. It is hard to see. But it looks like he has 'big ears'. Also, the scroll is different.

That image on your page here is the one kept at Taiseikiji and which is displayed each year at Omushibarai-e.
