All Japanese Shinto Art

Sacred artwork of Japanese Shinto mythology and its native kami, distinct from the Buddhist imagery Japan also produced in quantity. Belongs here: a work whose subject is a Shinto kami or creation myth, such as Izanami and Izanagi creating the Japanese islands, Susanoo slaying the serpent Yamata no Orochi, or a Shinto ritual dance such as Iwato Kagura. Does not belong here: a Japanese Buddhist subject such as a Zen painting or a Nichiren mandala, grouped under Buddhist Art, even where the same artist or era produced both.
