{"product_id":"kim-hong-do-danwon-danwon-genre-painting-album-village-school-korean-painting-art-print","title":"Kim Hong-do (Danwon) — Danwon Genre Painting Album: Village School | Korean Painting Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA village schoolroom is drawn in quick brown outline with pale washes on buff paper. A bearded teacher in a tall black hat and white robe sits behind a low table, one hand resting on its edge, with a small dark book stand at its far end. In front of him a boy hunches with one hand raised to his eyes. Eight classmates sit on the floor in two curving rows with open books, most of them grinning, and one youth wears a wide-brimmed hat. The leaf is a scene from Kim Hong-do's album of everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album gathers twenty-five scenes of ordinary Joseon life in ink and light colour, and Kim Hong-do leaves out the background so that attention falls on the figures and their round, smiling faces. Korea's heritage authority values the leaves as a record of how people lived and dealt with one another. The album was designated a Treasure of Korea in 1970 and is held by the National Museum of Korea in Seoul.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: album leaf, ink and light colour on paper, 18th century, National Museum of Korea, Seoul.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKim Hong-do (1745–c. 1806), known by his art name Danwon, was a Korean court painter of the Joseon dynasty from the jungin, or middle, class. He studied as a boy with the painter and critic Kang Sehwang, entered the royal Bureau of Painting in his early twenties, and in 1771 painted the crown prince, the future King Jeongjo; he was a favourite of Yeongjo and Jeongjo. He painted landscapes, Buddhist and Daoist themes, portraits, flowers and animals, but is known above all for humorous, lively genre scenes of ordinary people at work and leisure, gathered in the album Genre Paintings by Danwon. He is counted among the Three Wons of Joseon painting. The album of 25 leaves is held by the National Museum of Korea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
