Amaterasu's Blessing (Imperial Palace)

Please note: This article is about the sculpture. For other uses of the term, please see Amaterasu's Blessing (disambiguation).
The Amaterasu's Blessing was an sculpture located in the sixth floor of the Imperial Palace, a floor which had no walls. The sculpture was formed by a crystal and jade Imperial Mon on the east, and statues of Hantei bowing before the Sun Goddess Amaterasu on the west. When the sun rose each morning, the light filtered through the mon, illuminating the statues with impossible grace. Otosan Uchi:Book 2, p. 95
