Ōbai-in

Ōbai-in (黄梅院) is an autonomous sub-temple of Daitoku-ji, Kyoto, Japan, the headquarters of the Daitoku-ji school of the Rinzai sect of Zen Buddhism. The Hondō (1586) and Kuri (1589) have been designated Important Cultural Properties.[1][2] Momoyama period monochrome fusuma paintings of Seven hermits in a bamboo grove (16 panels), Landscape with figures (14 panels), and Geese (14 panels), by Unkoku Tōgan (1588), have also been designated Important Cultural Properties.[3][4][5][6] The severed head of the statue of Sen no Rikyū, its position fatally regarded as hubristic by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, was once kept at Obai-in.[7]
