hanging scroll Explanation: The dimensions will tell the reader that the scroll is taller than it is long. The word doesn't really exist in English, so it's more natural to just call it a hanging scroll. The landscape painting is a silk hanging scroll, 154.2cm long by 54.5cm wide, in the blue-and-green style. |
