Overall length, from left to right ends, of emakimono varies very much, with majority length in the vicinity of 10m, but also with such length as 20m per one scroll like "Kokawadera Engi Emaki" (a picture scroll of the legends of Kokawa-dera Temple).
左右の長さ、すなわち巻物全体の長さについてはまちまちで、全長10メートル前後のものが多いが、『粉河寺縁起絵巻』のように1巻で20メートル近い長さのものもある。
