English: Agyō, the west Niō (guardian king) and guardian of the daylight hours of Horyuji ( Horyu-ji), a Buddhist temple in Nara Prefecture, Japan. The figure was originally sculpted in the 7th century, but it has been extensively restored, so it bears little resemblance to its original design.
Français : Ni-ô (Misshaku, gardien à la bouche ouverte) à la porte centrale du Horyu-ji près de Nara.
