Two different types of mounting are found in Far Eastern painting: rolled (hanging and hand scrolls), and flat (folded screens, panels, prints). They have distinctive characteristics and their conservation problems are influenced by the use of the materials from which they are composed. In each type the mounter strives for an overall balance among the many layers of paper and disparate materials. In a scroll the choice and juxtaposition of the papers will determine how it will roll, hang, and be preserved. The complex structure of a folded screen and the problems associated with its repair are briefly described. Works that have recently undergone remounting need about a year for the individual components to acclimate as a unit to the surrounding environment. Far Eastern works were not intended to be on permanent display, but should be kept rolled and protected from light. Comments are given on the care and handling of scrolls and screens, as well as advice on remounting. -- AATA
