EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print from c1890 showcases the grandeur and authority of a Korean nobleman or government official. The scene depicts the esteemed figure being transported in a traditional form of litter, carried by four porters with straps over their shoulders. As an emblem of power and status, this mode of transportation symbolizes the importance and influence held by the individual being carried. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable, capturing not only the intricate design of the chair but also highlighting two personal attendants who dutifully hold it steady. Their presence emphasizes the significance attached to this nobleman's position within society. The fashion displayed in this image reflects both tradition and elegance. The nobleman is dressed impeccably, showcasing garments that are characteristic of his social standing. Every element has been carefully considered, from his attire to the ornate chair he sits upon. Transported through time via this exquisite watercolour painting, we catch a glimpse into Korean history and culture during this period. This art piece serves as a testament to how power was visually represented back then - through regal attire, ceremonial transport, and dedicated attendants
