Butsu Hyougu Style Scroll



This is another painting of the Sanso Collection. I believe it is number 74, by the painter Sengai. This is the information on the painter provided by Wikipedia. Sengai Gibon (仙厓 義梵, 1750–1837) was a Japanese monk of the Rinzai school (one of three main schools of Zen Buddhism in Japan)

I framed this in the formal style called Butsu Hyougu in order to match the White Robed Kannon (Water Kannon) theme of the painting with the calligraphy. I also used the traditional Kin Jikusaki and the top kin on the Hassou, to match the elegance of the painting.

I think it turned out quite beautiful.
