Actually, I don't think it is the Shutei Gohonzon that is the principle Gohonzon bestowed by the Nichiren Shu but I could be wrong. Nikke will get the details on this Gohonzon.
As are all Nichiren Gohonzons made by his own hand, this is a beautiful one. It does closely resemble one that I have titled Nichiren's last Gohonzon. Michael

"When there was no copy machine, Gohonzon was hand-written by Hokke practitioner. Beautiful copied Gohonzon which is bestowed by the head temple was hand-written by one of the past top priests of Kempon Hokke, who was also famous as a calligrapher". Sinyou tsuchiya (sin)
