Painting of Flowering Plants on Four-panel Folding Screen

19th century~Early 20th century

National Palace Museum of Korea

National Palace Museum of Korea
Seoul, South Korea

This is a painting of flowers such as plum blossoms and peonies blooming outdoors amongst rocks and in the valley with running water. More than two different kinds of flowers are painted on each panel, and the folding screen is composed in such a way that the two connected panels would face each other. The depiction of rocks and banks is based on a traditional teal color style but other colors are appropriately combined to enhance the three-dimensional effect. Vivid red and green colors contrast with each other to express the flowers and leaves, giving a fresh energy to the screen.
