Hotei and Child 

Sengai's "Hotei and Child" is a humorous and charming ink painting that features Hotei, the Japanese deity of happiness and good fortune, with a child. Hotei is depicted as a jolly, round-bellied figure pointing upwards with one arm raised. His companion, a child, looks up at him with wide eyes. Sengai, a renowned Zen monk and artist of the Edo period, was known for his whimsical and expressive style. His work often combined humor with profound philosophical insights, as seen in this delightful depiction of Hotei and his child. The simple black ink lines and the uncluttered composition create a sense of spontaneity and joy, typical of Sengai's art.
