What is a kakejiku?
Japanese hanging scroll or Kakejiku (掛軸) are hung on the wall to display Japanese ink paintings (sumi-e) or calligraphy. Some kakejiku are designed for special occasions (such as wedding ceremonies) but they are also appreciated all year-long as an interior decoration. In traditional codes, the best is to match the artwork or the poem represented on it to the upcoming season.
The work of art at the center is executed on thin paper or fabric, before being mounted to stiffer background papers, and framed with various jacquard silk fabrics. When not in use, it can be rolled for stored away in its box.
