As the title would entail, the scroll contains a vast suite of nicely painted fish and birds, all varying in size and detail. The designs are all largely fantastical and humorous in nature, and clearly an original composition, not copied after any prior examples. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eemakimono\u003c\/i\u003e has been written on thin washi paper and bound in scroll format, without any covers.
