Wind-god vs. Thunder-god. This is a popular theme
for paintings in Japan. The most famous paintings of the theme were painted by
Ogata Korin and Tawaraya Sotatsu on folding screens. The myth originated from
Buddhism. In Japan, the Wind-god is usually painted naked with a big air bag on
his back running in the sky, while Thunder-god has a face a demon with a belt of
Tiger's skin, a big hoop with a string of drum attached is slung over his
shoulder, and a big bat in his hand.
