It is named Tōshōgu any temple built to honor the memory of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate which lasted for almost three centuries (all the length of the Edo period, from1603 to 1868).
Ieyasu is enshrined in any of these Shrines, whose name comes from the title Tōshō Daigongen, "Great manifestation of the Buddha, Light of the East", which was bestowed to Ieyasu to after his death, deifying him.
The most renowned one is he Nikkō Tōshōgu followed by the Ueno Tōshōgu (in the Ueno park of Tōkyō), the Kunōzan Tōshōgu in Shizuoka and the Nagoya Tōshōgu, but it is told that there were almost five hundred Tōshōgu Shrine during
the Edo period, nowadays reduced to 130 of which 48 are recognized by the national Tōshōgu association.
Very good condition. Color is still pretty clear and vivid with good saturation. There are not remarkable stains nor wrinkles. Any sign of fixing.
