EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of Korea's rich history and mythical folklore. In the foreground, we see Haetae, a stone mythical creature standing proudly in front of Gwanghwamun, the main gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul. The intricate details carved into this majestic creature are truly awe-inspiring. Gyeongbokgung Palace itself is a testament to Korea's glorious past, as it was once the main royal palace during the Joseon era. This historical landmark holds immense significance for both locals and tourists alike, offering a glimpse into the country's cultural heritage. The juxtaposition of Haetae against the backdrop of Gwanghwamun creates a captivating visual narrative. As a mythical guardian lion-like figure often found at palaces and temples across East Asia, Haetae symbolizes protection and warding off evil spirits. Its presence here adds an air of mystique to this already enchanting scene. Seoul, South Korea's bustling capital city, serves as an ideal backdrop for this photograph. The vibrant energy and modernity that define Asian capitals blend harmoniously with its deep-rooted traditions and historical sites like Gyeongbokgung Palace. Jane Sweeney has skillfully captured this moment in time through her lens, allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the cultural significance behind these landmarks. Whether you're an avid traveler or simply someone who appreciates artistry and history, this print will transport you
