(1932) Many small, sweet Daruma


We have talked before about who Daruma (だるま/達磨) aka "Bodhidharma" was and about his omnipresence in Japan as a talisman. As a matter of fact, I could make another blog  featuring only Daruma images but until I do, you can make do with his Nihon Arekore occasional appearances like here, in the form of manju swwets.
