As a sculptor during the mid Edo Era, Sekiguchi Bunjiro of the Joshu Domain wielded great influence in the world of sculpting and established a sculptor's guild in which he played a focal role. Called the "Left-handed Goro of Joshu" (after the renowned master sculptor of Toshogu Shrine in Nikko), his name has achieved immortality.
