c. 1900

Collection

The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York

A ten-panel screen pairing different flowers and birds on each panel: peony with peacock, plum with magpie, lotus with duck, each match chosen for season and meaning, to wish for wealth, harmony and many children. The bright palette of late-Joseon folk-style bird-and-flower painting fills the whole screen.
