金毘羅是京都三十三間堂內守護千手觀音的「二十八部眾」之一，為國寶，創作於鎌倉時代，像高155釐米。其形象源自鱷魚神格化的水神，被認為能護佑海上安全與漁獲豐收。雕像呈武士立姿，身著甲胄，面容威嚴。其左手持弓，但現存實物僅餘半截弓身；旁側的復原模型則完整呈現了持弓姿態。整體造型展現了鎌倉時代護法神像的雄渾力量與細膩工藝。 The statue of Konpira (Kumbhīra) is one of the Twenty-Eight Deva Guardians protecting the Thousand-Armed Kannon at Sanjūsangen-dō. Designated a National Treasure​ and created in the Kamakura period, it stands 155 cm tall. Its imagery derives from a crocodile deified as a water deity, believed to grant maritime safety and bountiful catches. The figure stands in a warrior's pose, clad in armor with a stern expression. Its left hand holds a bow, though only half of the original bow remains today. The sculpture exemplifies the robust power and refined craftsmanship of Kamakura-period guardian statues.
