All auctions / Ancient Art / Tiger Family - South Korea - Joseon Dynasty


Framed "Tiger Family" - Fine art print Item description In deep mountains, a tigress, two cubs, and a leopard welcome the early morning sun. This is not merely a playful scene but a well calculated image with symbols of longevity (pine trees), prosperity (tigress and cubs), and good fortune (leopard). Traditionally, on New Year’s Eve, the image of a fearsome-looking tiger was pasted on entrance doors to ward off evil spirits. Conventional Korean tiger paintings often include frolicking magpies, but here, the crimson sun is placed behind a majestic pine. Dimensions Without frame : 19 x 24 cm With frame : 30 x 37 cm Shipping & Packaging The item will be professionally packaged with the utmost care, using high-quality protective materials to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.
