Korea Heritage Service · khs.go.krThis work well displays the characteristics of Buddhist paintings from the late 19th century. It is a highly important source because, unusually for a group-composition (gundo) style Ksitigarbha and Ten Kings painting, it inscribes the name of each of the Ten Kings along with the sexagenary-cycle date given in the Susaeng-gyeong (Sutra on Prolonging Life), making it possible to identify the kings' exact names.
