Symbolism & Simplicity Ken Vos

"Symbolism & Simplicity" contains a fine selection of Korean literati paintings and porcelain from the outstanding collection of Dr. Won-Kyung Cho. The collection represents one of the world's largest private holdings of traditional Korean art. The paintings and porcelain illustrated in this book reflect the dynamism and the search for harmony that underlie Korean culture. The refinement and formal symbolism of these aristocratic arts also typify the strict Confucianist society that has evolved in Korea since the 16th century.
