Large-scale works, such as folding screens or sets of sliding doors, remained the preserve of officially employed artists and certain designated townsman painters. Hokusai, despite his fame, painted only a limited number of screens. Most of his large-scale works are in the collection of the Freer Gallery of Art, reflecting Charles Lang Freer's determination to build the finest Hokusai painting collection in the world.
