EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from "The Banquet of Seowangmo" a remarkable eight-panel screen created by the Korean School around 1800. The artwork, housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, transports viewers into the realm of mythology and spirituality. At its core, this masterpiece illustrates an extraordinary feast hosted by Seowangmo, also known as Xiwangmu or the Queen Mother of the West. Set against the enchanting backdrop of Jasper Lake (yojiyeon), she and her consort Dongwanggong exude divine authority as they sit enthroned amidst a lush garden terrace adorned with peach trees.

The painting's intricate details showcase not only Seowangmo's regal presence but also her attendants – goddesses and maidens who contribute to the ethereal ambiance surrounding them. This visual narrative invites us to delve into Korean religious legends while exploring themes such as courtly life, theology, and spirituality. Through its vibrant colors enhanced with gold accents on silk fabric, this print captures both the grandeur of palace life and Far Eastern aesthetics.
