The Kakemono
| In Japanese art, a
work of art mounted for hanging. A picture or
piece of calligraphy on paper or silk is glued
on a paper backing with a silk or brocade frame
and different pieces of silk above and below it.
At the bottom is a stick of wood around which
the scroll can be rolled up for storage; at the
top is a lighter slat of wood from which it
hangs. |
The Tokono-ma
| In traditional
Japanese houses, one room has a Tokonoma,
an alcove designed for the display of a kakemono
and perhaps a flower arrangement or a piece of
pottery. The practice is to change the picture
depending on the season. The rolled-up kakemono
can be stored in a specially designed box
sometimes called a Kiri box which can be made in Paulownia
or Cedar
wood. Modern Boxes are usually Paulownia. Stored
until it is brought out again. Some
scrolls have hand made silk covered boxes or
boxes made from strong card with silica bead
bags inside.. |
