Description
| *Reduced size picture scroll [heavy artifact, Night Parade of One Hundred Demons]*. Muromachi period, Lent by Shu-an, Daitoku-ji, Tokyo As the picture scroll unfolds, demons and ghosts appear one after another. They march rapidly from right to left, displaying expressions and movements brimming with individuality. Many of them seem to be instrumental yokai, disguised as everyday items, musical instruments, weapons, and Buddhist ritual implements. This represents what is called "tsukumogami," which is believed to be a kind of "tsukumogami" that often haunts the hearts of people by acquiring spirits as incarnations after a hundred years. [There are several lines of picture scrolls called "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons," and a large number of manuscripts from the Edo period remain. Among them, this scroll, which has been handed down to Shujuan, the pagoda of Daitokuji Temple, can be said to be the oldest. Although the circumstances of its formation are shrouded in mystery, the rhythmical development of scenes with colorful yokai in this Shujuan book is very attractive. At the end, a huge red orb, said to be either the sun or the flame of a spell to extinguish sins, called Sonshodarani, emerges from the darkness, and the yokai turn back, bringing the procession to an end with a haunting aftertaste. This is a masterpiece of picture scrolls that allows us to encounter the humorous sensibility of the Japanese people of the Muromachi period. |

室町時代 大徳寺真珠庵蔵
絵巻物を繰り広げるにつれ、続々と現れる鬼や妖怪たち。個性あふれる表情や動きを見せながら、右から左へぐんぐん行進します。彼らの多くは日用品、楽器、武具、仏具などが化けた器物の妖怪のようです。これは、器物は百年たつと化身として精霊を得て、しばしば心をたぶらかすと考えられた「付喪神（つくもがみ）」と呼ばれるものをあらわしています。
「百鬼夜行」と称される絵巻物は数系統あり、江戸時代の写本が大量に残っています。その中で、大徳寺の塔頭真珠庵に伝来する本巻はもっとも古いといえるものです。成立の経緯は謎に包まれているものの、この真珠庵本の色鮮やかな妖怪たちによるリズミカルな場面展開はとても魅力的。最後には太陽とも尊勝陀羅尼（そんしょうだらに）という罪障消滅の呪文の炎ともいわれる巨大な赤い球体が暗闇から出現し、妖怪たちが引き返すことで、行進は妖しげな余韻を残して終わりを告げます。
室町時代の日本人のユーモラスな感性に出会える、絵巻物の傑作です。
