KEY WORD :@art history / sculptures

A seated position of Buddhist images in which both legs are stretched out to one side. The name of this position is derived from the winnow –₯ (pronounces ki or mi), as it is said to resemble this agricultural instrument. This relaxed posture is found on the Benzaitenzou •Ωΰ“V‘œ at Tsurugaoka Hachimanguu ’ί‰ͺ”ͺ”¦‹{ (1266) and on the Yuima Kojizou ˆΫ–€‹Žm‘œ at Shoumyouji Μ–ΌŽ›iKamakura period), both in kanagawa prefecture. Some sources indicate the kiza also refers to a seated position with one knee raised and the other folded in front of the body, as in the *rinnouza —Φ‰€Ώ position. The sculpture of the priest Gyouga s‰κ from The Six Patriarchs of the Hossou sect, Hossou Rokusou –@‘Š˜Z‘c in Koufukuji ‹»•ŸŽ› (1189) is an example of a work considered to be in the alternate form of this position.
