Theme for interpretive poster?

Question:


Hi all, i need to think of a theme for my interpretive poster. The poster is based on the Buddhist Monuments in the Horyu-ji Area in Japan.

For those who don't know what the place is; it is the world's oldest wooden buildings, and the first Buddhist site in Japan. It was instated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993.

What theme could potentially be used, on a poster?

Answer:


The Five-story Pagoda of Horyu-ji and a Japanese persimmon (kaki) tree.
There is a very famous haiku, saying "I hear the bell of Hory-ji tolling, while I am eating kaki".
The haiku made Horyu-ji inseparable from kaki.
