Original – The Hegassen scroll, a Japanese Japanese art scroll created during the Edo period by an unknown artist or several unknown artists. "A set of 12 "He-gassen" prints sold for over $1,500 at Christie's Auction House in the 1990s."

Reason: Different. But since we have THIS stuff on the Fisherman's Wife called the The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife, by Hokusai .... Why not. Note the file size is 16.05 MB, but considering the format, very vide and long, hope it is fine. The format: 29.6 cm × 1003.1 cm (11.7 in × 394.9 in).

Support - Interesting scroll. Some stitching errors, but not really something I can imagine fixing. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:47, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support interesting. This volume of farting looks more like championship. Brandmeister^talk 15:50, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support I came to tell you boys to grow up but, although I'm not sure the EV is as strong as it could be, I've been won over by flatulence. One thing ruins it though: poor kitty gets it; tree gets blown down; panels get smashed; rider gets unseated; meals get ruined; but not one monkey gets its hat blown off! Unknown artist of the Edo period, I am disappoint. Belle (talk) 23:24, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I'm blown away. (On a related note: I'm traveling at the moment, and saw this for the first time on my hotel computer last night. Now I have to find away to work the phrase "Japanese farting in Tallinn" into conversation...) --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 20:18, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
