For centuries the range has inspired cultural pride and a vast outpouring of creative expression. Yet since the partition of Korea in the 1940s, situating them in the North, the Diamond Mountains have remained largely inaccessible to visitors, shrouding the site in legend, loss, and longing. This book examines the visual representation of this remarkable landscape from the 18th century to the present day. It explores how Jeong Seon (1676-1759) revolutionized Korean painting with his Diamond Mountains landscapes, replacing conventional generic imagery with specific detail and indelibly influencing generations of artists in his wake. It also discusses the potency of these mountains as an emblem of Korean cultural identity, as reflected in literature and in exquisitely detailed album leaves, handscrolls, hanging scrolls, and screens. This magnificent volume is the first in English to survey this rich artistic tradition and bring these distant mountains into view"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a "This catalogue is published in conjunction with Diamond Mountains: Travel and Nostalgia in Korean Art, on view at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, from February 7 through May 20, 2018." 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a An introduction to the Diamond Mountains -- Jeong Seon's Album of Mount Geumgang / Lee Soomi -- Picturing Diamond Mountains : True views and beyond / Soyoung Lee -- The landscape before the eyes : Mounts Geumgang, Fuji, and Huang / Chin-Sung Chang -- In praise of the Diamond Mountains : literary journeys / Ahn Daehoe. 651 0 $a Diamond Mountains (Korea) $v Exhibitions. $v Exhibitions. 651 0 $a Diamond Mountains (Korea) $x In literature $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a National characteristics, Korean $v Exhibitions. 650 7 $a ART / Subjects & Themes / Landscapes. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ART / Asian. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ART / Collections, Catalogs, Exhibitions / Group Shows. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / Asia / Korea. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999953 650 7 $a National characteristics, Korean. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01033465 651 7 $a Korea (North) $z Diamond Mountains. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411003 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 700 1 $a Lee, Soyoung, $d 1971- $e contributor. 710 2 $a Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, N.Y.), $e host institution. $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211020908.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9D75DFAC580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
