In Japan, there are various "lucky items" considered to bring good fortune.
Each has its own legends, and they embody the wishes for good luck.
The Seven Lucky Gods are: Ebisu, Daikokuten, Bishamonten, Benzaiten, Jurōjin, Fukurokuju, and Hotei.
They are associated with the phrase "Seven hardships immediately vanish, seven blessings immediately arise," and are gods of the seven blessings, aiming to save from various difficulties symbolized by the number seven.
Historically, they have been depicted on scrolls, fan surfaces, and paper fans, and are familiar as auspicious symbols.
Expressed in the artist's unique style called "Ink Wash Pop Art," they are portrayed with a characterful and unique charm.
The lively and character-rich depiction of the Seven Lucky Gods by Hajime Okamoto is a joyful piece that seems to bring good fortune just by looking at it.
