Pale bound books with green and blue edges stack in tall towers. Between them stand a white crackled vase of flowering branches, a blue bottle, red cups, a green incense burner, coral and a hanging ornament, and a brush pot beside a silvery fish-shaped vessel on a blue stand. Plum, orchid and pink lilies grow in vases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChaekgeori, meaning books and things, is a genre of Korean still-life painting, usually on folding screens, that flourished from the late eighteenth century into the first half of the twentieth. King Jeongjo (r. 1776–1800) is credited as its first patron; the early court screens painted bookcases in illusionistic depth, the first Korean use of European trompe l'oeil. Books share the shelves with bronzes, ceramics, seals and even European clocks. Most screens carry no name; a few painters hid their seals among the objects on the shelves. By the late nineteenth century the newly rich commissioned them, often with auspicious fruit in place of books, and folk painters took up the theme. Examples are held by the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Minneapolis Institute of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is made to our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/archival-museum-standards\"\u003eArchival Museum Standards\u003c\/a\u003e: a 12-ink giclée, printed to order.
