FAMILY OF TIGERS, 17TH CENTURY

About the Artwork

Now extinct, the Korean tiger was admired for its strength and independent spirit, and in folk paintings was often associated with the mountain deity, San Shin. In earlier centuries, paintings of tigers were displayed in Korean homes to celebrate the New Year. These images were intended to ward off evil spirits and served as guardians for the family household during the year ahead.
