Virtual Event

Korea possesses a long tradition of landscape painting, tracing back to the tomb murals of the early part of the common era. The majority of known landscape works were made during the Joseon dynasty (1392–1910). One of the most important achievements in landscape painting during this period was the development of “true view” landscape painting.  These paintings depicted special and sacred places in Korea in innovative ways. We will explore these places through the eyes of the artist involved in these ground breaking developments.
