A 1:1 replica of Wu Zhen’s Wild Geese Among Reeds is incomplete without proper mounting. At SinoInArt, we reject the shortcuts of modern machine-mounting. Instead, every replica is hand-finished using traditional mounting techniques that have been passed down through generations of master mounters.
Traditional mounting is a complex process involving multiple layers of backing paper applied with natural starch paste. This ensures the scroll remains flexible and resilient. When you unroll a SinoInArt scroll, it hangs perfectly flat, avoiding the curls and wrinkles that plague lower-quality reproductions.
We select the finest silk for our borders, choosing patterns and colors that harmonize with Wu Zhen’s monochrome ink palette. This "frame" is not just decorative; it provides the necessary weight and tension to keep the painting centered and stable. It is a work of craftsmanship in its own right.
Our mounting process also considers the "breathing" of the paper. By using natural adhesives and breathable silk, we ensure that the Xuan paper can expand and contract with environmental changes without cracking. This archival mindset is what makes SinoInArt the leader in high-end art replicas.
When you display a SinoInArt replica, you are showcasing more than a picture—you are showcasing a complete cultural artifact. The weight of the wooden rollers, the texture of the silk, and the precision of the mounting all combine to create an authentic museum-viewing experience.
