Regarding Kyoto Ōiri
Tatsuo Ōiri belongs to a long family lineage of Kyouji—craftsmen who specialize in mounting scrolls, an art that has been passed down since the Nara period. His studio, Kyoto Ōiri, is responsible for preparing sutra scrolls and Japanese books, creating replicas, and restoring and preserving historical documents and artworks designated as important cultural properties. This work leverages traditional techniques and familial wisdom that stretch back through history, ensuring the cultural treasures left by scholars and artists of the past are passed down to future generations.

The frames are hand-made upon purchase, specially fitted for the painting. This process takes considerable time.
