19th Century Flower Painting, Korea
Signed and sealed by Chong Mon, a Korean artist whose work dates from mid to late 19th century, this painting is graceful and simple, a fine example of Korean technique using ink and color on paper in the classic Asian style. The subjects are tiger lilies, a rock and two butterflies. The artist added a poem in calligraphy that is very much in tune with the subject matter. The painting retains strong color and is good condition overall, with a few small stains indicating that originally it may have been mounted as a scroll. It now is in a simple Korean frame and is matted in silk that matches the paper tone. Dimensions without frame: height 38" (97 cm), width 12" (30 cm). Dimensions with frame: height 44" (112 cm), width 18 1/2" (47 cm), depth 1" (2 1/2 cm)
