Standing Statue of Kichijōten

The Standing Statue of Kichijōten (Japanese: 厨子入木造吉祥天立像, Hepburn: Zushi-iri mokuzō Kisshōten ryūzō) is a 13th-century Japanese Buddhist sculpture depicting the devi Śrīmahādevī, an East Asian Buddhist manifestation of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi. Housed in the hondō (Main Hall) of Jōruri-ji (National Treasure), the sculpture is classified as an Important Cultural Property and is considered the most representative piece of the deity. The preservation of original polychromy is attributed to the image being a hibutsu ('secret Buddha'), which is only displayed to the public a few times a year.
