The Ten Symbols of Longevity - Softcover
The ten symbols of longevity – rocks, water, clouds, sun, pine trees, turtles, deer, cranes, bamboo, and fungus – represent a ubiquitous theme in the Joseon-period (1392–1910) visual culture of Korea. This volume examines a large ten-panel foldingscreen landscape, created by an unknown court artist and intended for use in a Korean palace. Such screens of the ten symbols were often used in a ceremonial capacity for celebrations of the new year, palace banquets, and significant anniversaries.
This book provides an introduction to the ten-symbols theme in Korean art and a historical and critical context for a particular screen.
