Painted creatures and flowers grow into the strokes: a crab above one character, a pair of birds on a blossoming branch, a coiling dragon, and an orange carp leaping at the top of the last panel. Below, book stacks in blue, orange and green wrappers sit with a striped melon, vases, lotus and a small deer. The eight characters name Confucian virtues.\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.
