横スクロールで楽しむワイド美術

Side-scrolling art for your enjoyment

Picture scrolls are not the only art that can be rediscovered through horizontal scrolling. For example, many Japanese works of art, such as folding screens and fusuma paintings, are made on wide screens, and in the West, there are many examples of illustrated art, such as the Bayeux Tapestry and frescoes. Also. In the modern era, Monet, who was influenced by Japonism, created a series of paintings called Water Lilies that surrounded a room like a fusuma (sliding door) painting.
