called kugemon 公家門 or *karamon
唐門. A 4-legged gate *shikyakumon
四脚門, with a cypress bark roof *hiwadabuki
桧皮葺. It is located toward the south-end of the west mud packed wall that
forms the outer enclosure of Kyoto Gosho 京都御所. It faces the Inmeimon (Onmeimon)
陰明門 and was originally a guard station. Imperial princes and other noblemen
entered the palace grounds on foot through this gate. However, high officials
with permits from the emperor were permitted to ride through in an ox-drawn
cart as far as a platform arranged for them to alight. Built in 1755?, the
gate closely resembles a type of gate called *Kenreimon
建礼門, but is different in that it has two sculptures in the round, and instead
of frog-leg struts *kaerumata
蟇股, the main purlin receives another purlin. Bottle struts *taiheizuka
大瓶束 are positioned on this beam to support the ridge *munagi
棟木. |
