The painting of Miroku Bosatsu (絹本著色弥勒菩薩像, kenpon chakushoku Miroku Bosatsu-zō) is a hanging scroll depicting a seated Miroku Bosatsu on a lotus throne in a pose of meditation, holding a small pagoda. The scroll has dimensions of 93.1 cm by 52.7 cm and dates from the mid-Kamakura period.
The Miroku Bosatsu image at Ōno-ji is a magaibutsu carved into a large rock wall about 30 meters high on the opposite bank of the Uda River. The rock wall was carved into a halo shape over a height of 13.8 meters, and the inside was smoothed and carved into a 11.5 meter tall bas-relief image.

Unkei was a devout Buddhist, and records from 1183 (Heian period end) show that he transcribed two copies of the Lotus Sutra with the aid of two calligrapher monks and a woman sponsor named Akomaro.
