55 x 9.5 inches
My first attempt at mounting was a piece of calligraphy by my daughter Chloe.
The artwork - On New Year’s Day, 2012, she wrote the character for dragon twice, in running script.
chūberi - The interior red frame is vintage kimono-lining thin silk called momi.
ichimonji - The gold edges at top and bottom of the artwork are gold printed pale green paper.
ten and chi - The outer blue-violet frames are Duppioni silk.
finials - The decorative finials at either end of the bottom roller are ceramic drawer pulls.
