History

The traditionalkamielemental deities of the Shinto religion take many forms. One of them is Watatsumi, the tutelary sea dragon god that takes on many names and titles in different parts of Japan and between different myths, but is always a symbol of sagacity and guidance. Numerous Shinto shrines are devoted to Watatsumi to this day, and artwork of the sea dragon showcases the mixture of ancient Chinese influences with Japan’s own distinctive and inimitable artistic genius.
