This object was examined along with others from the Chamberlain Collection by Sekiko Matsuzaki-Petitmengin in June 2003 and 15 October 2007. She placed this object within the category of "Designs, iconographic models, histories and maps + Ofuda". [SM 06/10/2008]
This object was examined by Professor Itaru Chijiwa during his research visit in November 2008. He believes that 1908.82.565 and 1908.82.567 might be part of the same set - i.e. that they are copies of the same kind of temple wall decorations. [SM 05/12/2008]
