Let’s start off with a monumental work of Kim Hong-do and his Royal Court artist associates who, in great detail, painted King Jeongjo’s procession to Suwon to celebrate his mother’s 60th birthday.
Thank you for the video link; amazing animation and sound track. AI at work?
Nice article about Kim Hong-do's art and a fun venture into the possibility that Sharaku could have been Kim Hong-do. I also enjoyed the painting of 씨름 (ssi-reum), having just become familiar with the sport of Korean wrestling. This article is full of Korean cultural history. 감사
I think it was before AI, it's more than 10 years old, I think.
You've watched 씨름? Now you're becoming hardcore Korea-phile, not that you weren't before... Despite obvious similarities, it's distinctly different from the Japanese sumo, where things can get pretty violent.
I didn't get into it because I really don't know how to look at them, but the brush strokes between Kim Hong-do and Sharaku are (although the paintings as a whole look decidedly different) supposedly very similar.
