This notable cataloguethe first English-language publication on the subjecthighlights the art of the early period (1392-1592) of Koreaâ??s revolutionary Joseon dynasty. The Joseon rulers replaced the Buddhist establishment and re-created a Korean society informed on every level by Neo-Confucian ideals.

Many of the works have never been seen in the United States. Read More
