Hello everyone, I recently acquired this piece, the seller told me its from the 19th century, and that he got it from an old estate in Japan. I do know my little share of antiquities and mythology, from the looks of it, it seems to be a variable representation of the Fudo Myoo (japanese), or Acala (sanskrit). But I want to know for sure who he is, as I never seen such a representation of this deity, as he is holding his foot, does not have the characteristic up and down fangs of Fudo Myoo, etc, if someone can help identifying it, I would be very grateful. I would like to know about its possible age too, and lastly, an approximated value. Thank you all! Those are the pictures, he came with his shrine. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/3MYAAOSwgkhakL6W/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/hjIAAOSwUzFakL6W/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/L~0AAOSwUmZakL6X/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/GisAAOSw7EtakL6W/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/I3wAAOSwZMNakL6X/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/OH8AAOSwehVakL6W/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/uycAAOSw6SVakL6X/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/VBkAAOSwXt5akL6X/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/zGQAAOSwDylakL6W/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/3McAAOSwgkhakL6X/s-l1600.jpghttps://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/hvUAAOSwr1NakL6W/s-l1600.jpg
