Description
UP FOR AUCTION IS ONE OF THE FINEST EXAMPLES OF KOREAN ARTS THIS PAINTING OF TIGER AND CUBS DATES FROM THE KOREAN CHOSON DYNASTY - MID. 18th. CENTURY. INK AND COLOUR ON MULBERRY PAPER , MOUNTED ON SILK AS A SCROLL . DIMENSIONS OF THE ONLY PAINTING 62,6 x 33,8 in. ( 159 x 86 cm. ) THE ENTIRE SCROLL IS 57 x 39,7 in. ( 145 x 101 cm. ) CONDITIONS ARE PERFECT EXCEPT FOR THE MINOR WATER STAIN SHOWN IN THE LAST PICTURE FOR A SIMILAR EXAMPLE CHECK THIS SITE: http://www.denverartmuseum.org/explore_art/collections/objectDetails/objectId--104878 PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY INFORMATION OR PICTURE YOU NEED. I'M AN ASIAN ANTIQUES COLLECTOR FROM MANY YEARS ,THIS WAS A WONDERFULL FIND I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE FROM A SERIOUS COLLECTOR OF ASIAN ANTIQUES HERE IN ROME .I BEGAN TO BE INVOLVED IN KOREAN ART WHEN FIRST TIME I SAW MINHWA PAINTINGS IN A GOOD BOOK OF ASIAN ART . I STARTED TO LOVE THIS FORM OF POPULAR ART , BUT I'M NOT SURE IF I WOULD CALL THIS A " FOLK " PAINTING , IS IT SIGNED WITH TWO RED SEALS AND PAINTED BY A VERY SKILLED PAINTER , I'M WONDERING IF THIS EXAMPLE COULD BE DONE BY A COURT ARTIST ? PAINTING WITH THIS MOTIF WERE DISPLAYED IN DOORWAYS OF KOREAN HOMES AT THE NEW YEAR TO WARD OFF EVIL SPIRITS AND SERVED AS GUARDIANS FOR THE FAMILY HOUSEHOLD DURING THE YEAR AHEAD. IT IS AN AMAZING PAINTING THAT LOOKS LIKE IT USES THE HISTORY OF KOREAN FOLK PAINTING NICELY, SEARCHING ON BOOKS AND BY THE INTERNET I CAN'T FIND ANY OTHER SIMILAR QUALITY EXAMPLES , ANYWAY , IF YOU CHECKED THE LINK I'VE PUT , THE ONE IN THE DENVER ART MUSEUM I THINK TO HAVE A CERTAIN AFFINITY WITH THIS ONE, FOR THE ENTIRE COMPOSITION ON THE CANVAS ( ROUNDED SHOULDERS OF THE TIGER MOTHER , ROCKS POSITIONS IN THE LOWER PART AND ON THE UPPER PART AND THE GRASS AND PLANTS IN THE UPPER CORNER) . I WILL SHIP IT WITH FEDEX ( TRACKABLE SHIPPING ) THAT BRINGS 2 DAYS ONLY TO RECEIVE IT , SHIPPING IS FREE TO UNITED STATES.
