Seated Portrait of Minamoto no Yoritomo (伝源頼朝坐像) is an anonymous wooden sculpture from the 13th or 14th centuries presumably depicting Minamoto no Yoritomo, now part of the collection of the Tokyo National Museum.
It is also said that when Toyotomi Hideyoshi visited the shrine, he talked to the sculpture of Yoritomo while patting it on its shoulder.
The style of these sculptures probably followed the popular portraits of court nobles in their "starched stiff clothing" and cross-legged position.
[3] A smaller-than-life portrait, with a height of about 70 cm from the bottom to the top of the eboshi, the typical headgear used by court nobles,[3] it has been praised for its "solemnity"[4] and for "showing the noble dignity of the head of a warrior family".
The last time it was on display was from July 25 to October 22, 2017, in Room 11 of the Honkan (Japanese Gallery).
