Original Note:
Though the statue laudably memorializes Yasuke, it is a 2017 artist's rendering of what Yasuke may have looked like, not a statue of Yasuke. Moreover, it is not a statue based on a contemporaneously-composed image of Yasuke. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasuke https://en.japantravel.com/kyoto/honno-ji-temple-and-oda-nobunaga/12663
