These re-creations were made based on existing Gensei-style Fukakusa Uchiwa fans from the Edo period. The fans carry poems written by Gensei, and each one has a beautifully decorated background using suminagashi (ink marbling), chigiri-e (collage of pieces of coloured paper), and bokashi (colour gradation), respectively.
