AB - In this research, investigated is the date of production of the frontispiece painting of 'Lotus Sutra' written in gold dust on indigo paper, and currently held in Tokugawa Art Museum in Japan. Since only few frontispiece painting produced in China exist, this particular frontispiece painting is highly valued. But without the prayer attached to this frontispiece painting, its date of production was not known, but only assumed, based on the analysis of its style.
However, the examination of the frontispiece painting of 'Lotus Sutra' produced in 1346 and currently held in the National Palace Museum in Taiwan made it possible to identify the date of production of this Tokugawa edition.
The comparison between the NPM edition and the Tokugawa edition shows that both were made on the same model, because some expressions are equally omitted from the drawing of sermon, facing right, and the subjects are completely identical on the drawing of tales, facing left, even with a little bit of differences in detail.
Based on this finding, it can be assumed that the frontispiece painting of 'Lotus Sutra' in Tokugawa Art Museum was produced between 1330 and 1350.
