Arai Hakuseki
Arai Hakuseki used the knowledge gained from his conversations with Sidotti to publish the "Seiyō Kibun" and the "Sairan Igen". An image taken from his belongings, called "oyayubi no seibozō" (親指の聖母像, "Thumb-sized Image of Virgin Mary") was designated an Important Cultural Property by the MEXT and is now housed in the Tokyo National Museum.
