Unkei, the great Buddhist sculptor who lived from the late Heian period to the early Kamakura period, is renowned for his monumental works in Nara, but he also flourished in eastern Japan through his close connections with the Kamakura shogunate. This official catalog of a special joint exhibition features numerous Buddhist sculptures attributed to Unkei and his workshop, exploring the history and culture of the Kamakura shogunate and the Miura clan through their artistic legacy.
