Seller's Description:
VG+. Owner's sticker on white side of ffep, otherwise clean and tight. Green & color illus. boards, illus. flyleaves, xv; 332 pp., many color illus. Issued in conjunction with a series of 2014-2015 exhibitions that introduce "the artistic accomplishments of one of the most important and distinctive eras in Korean history. Having seized power in the fourteenth century, the kings of the Joseon dynasty ruled for more than five hundred years. Guided by the ideals of Confucianism, they forged a stable and highly structured society, one that was governed by strict behavioral norms and shaped by habits of thought that still inform Korean life today. Austere, and yet deeply sensuous; highly formal, but also direct and intimate in character, the arts of the Joseon dynasty offer a fascinating portrait of Korean life and culture during this period." (foreword) With essays by Insoo Cho, Hongkyung Kim, Woollim Kim, So-hyun Kwon, Dongsoo Moon, Unsok Song, and Hyunsoo Wood. Includes examples of screen paintings, ceramics, ritual vessels, sculpture, and painting. Lavishly illustrated.
