Makimono (Makimono) – is a traditional Japanese horizontal handwritten scroll designed to be deployed in a horizontal direction. This format has been popular in various art forms, including painting and calligraphy.
Compared to Western works of art that hang on the wall, the makimono has an interactive character. To view an image or text on a makimono, you need to unfold the scroll manually.
Traditionally, makimono has been used to represent historical images, poetic works, religious texts, or literary works. This format allowed authors to create consistent interpretations or long narratives.
It is also important to note that scrolls were very practical for storage, because they could be compactly folded and stored in special boxes.
