RO-BIKI Note Passport Size Notebook Museum Series - Poets

Part of the RO-BIKI NOTE Museum Series by Yamamoto Paper, this pocket-sized notebook features Thirty-Six Immortal Poets, a folding screen painting by Japanese artist Ogata Kōrin (1658–1716).

The artwork depicts 36 celebrated Japanese poets from the Asuka to Heian periods, bringing together figures from different eras in a single composition. Known for his decorative and richly detailed style, Kōrin was one of the leading artists of the Rinpa school. Interestingly, the painting actually shows only 35 poets, as one noblewoman is hidden behind a screen.

The original artwork is held at the Menard Art Museum in Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

The RO-BIKI NOTE Museum Series celebrates artworks from museums and collections around the world, bringing a little piece of art history into everyday stationery.

Each notebook features a wax-coated paper cover that develops wrinkles, creases, and marks with use, gradually acquiring a leather-like aged appearance. Its compact, passport-sized format makes it easy to carry for travel, journaling, and everyday notes.

Inside are 60 pages of premium writing paper with a 5 mm dot grid.
