A combined citation covering Wikipedia's article on Genshin and an article in the Harvard Undergraduate Art History Journal on raigo iconography's origins. Their strength is corroborated agreement on Genshin's dates, his retreat to Yokawa on Mount Hiei, the Ojoyoshu's 985 completion and its formative influence on later Pure Land teachers. Their limit is that Genshin's own personal role in painting any specific raigo artwork is stated by both sources as uncertain, "may have," rather than documented, a hedge this citation preserves rather than upgrades to fact.
