| Research Abstract |
This is an interdisciplinary research project for developing a basic approach to elucidate scrolls as a pictorial material : The participants take pictures of the scrolls including Ippen Hijiri-e scroll and Nenchugyoji scroll, check them for coloring and lines, systematically classify the scrolls, identify things depicted in the scenes of each scroll and relationship between them, and interpret these scenes. In addition, other pictorial materials on Rakuchurakugai-zu panel and were photographes were printed for the study. Researchers, majoring in history of politics, cities, architecture, furniture, living culture, and Buddhist temple architecture joined in the project, chose their own assignment to investigate residences of the aristocracy, the Samurai-class, merchants, and hovels of common people and so on, took their presentations on the subject, and exchanged views on it at several meetings.
Through the project,
1. A basic approach to elucidate scrolls as pictorial materials was developed ;
2. It was found highly possible that the most valuable copies of scrolls in the National Museum collection, the Ippen Hijiri-e scroll and Nenchugyoji scroll, might be a precise copy of their lost originals, though they had been copied in the Edo period ;
3. Basic materials including photographs were collected to advance studies on scrolls ;
4. Facts and viewpoints were presented to improve the conventional studies ;
5. Also importance of studying scrolls as pictorial materials was clearly recognized and interdisciplinary studies should be undertaken ;
It is recommended that a research system might be required to further studies of pictures including scrolls.
