Metempsychosis (Yokoyama Taikan)
[edit]
Detail of Yokoyama Taikan's 40m scroll Metempsychosis
- ... that the first exhibition of Metempsychosis (detail pictured) was abandoned after only a few hours due to the Great Kantō earthquake?

The article is new. Long enough. Posted by due date. The image (art work) was produced in 1923, but author died in 1958, which means image copyrights within the US and some countries with 70 years plus life of author, may apply till 2028. Earwig's copyvio detector: violation unlikely (only flag was James Cahill's quote, which is in-text attributed, which is good). The article is well written, interesting, sourced. QPQ done. Hook verified in Weston's book, and AGF on two other sources in Japanese language. The article feels like a gold mine for more hooky hooks. GTG. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 15:14, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

- @Yoninah: It is part of the long scrolled image. It may not have the kind of CC or expired license to allow its use on the main page, but I defer to the experts. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 21:34, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
