Rat on the Hammer of Daikoku
The rat is the constant companion of the god of wealth, Daikoku. It is often depicted with the god of good fortune’s attribute, the magical wooden hammer he uses to grant wishes. Seiho created a pleasing contrast between the saturated black and soft grey brushstrokes. These kinds of easily accessible, skilfully painted works were popular with a large audience.
