Answers: Rotate the image counter-clockwise and look for bearded King Neptune and his trident in the space between the tree and the hillside. The smaller mermaid's face is in the water touching the shoreline, below left of the shell.

"Jizo, the bodhisattva (bosatsuin in Japanese) has become the most beloved figure of Japanese Buddhism. Stone figures of Jizo populate temple grounds, city and country. O-Jizo-Sama, as he is often respectfully called, is one of the most venerated Bosatsu in all of Japan. He is usually portrayed as a monk, wearing robes with a shaven head. He often holds a staff called a shakujo. This is used to both scare away living creatures so he doesn’t hurt them accidentally, and to awaken us from our dream-like world of illusion. On images and statues, he holds a wish-granting jewel that he shares with Kanzeon Bosatsu and Vishnu in the Hindu tradition" (Traditional Kyoto). Image from Harper's, 1895.
