Bartow dedicated this image “For Yamanota” to commemorate his time in Northern Japan in Yamanota Village, where papermaker Naoaki Sakamoto had his country studio. There was once also a paper museum in Yamanota, and a public exhibition house which hosted a solo exhibition of Bartow's work in 1997. Many of the structures in Yamanota were destroyed by earthquakes.
