This is a kakejiku,hanging scroll with the picture of
16 Rakan dated Showa 16(1,941).
The Rakan,the word "arahan" literally means "worthy one" and constitutes the highest grade of noble person—ariya-puggala—described by the Buddha as recorded in the Pali canon. The word was used (as it is today in the liturgy of Theravada Buddhism) as an epithet of the Buddha himself as well as of his enlightened disciples. Here is more information about Rakan.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arhat
In China and Japan, people called 16 pupils who promised to defend and maintain the teachings of Buddhism with "Sixteen Disciples of Buddha" and admired them.
