Turning into the next room, I found some paintings different from the traditional ones. At first what caught my eyes was a painting on Buddhist nun. Looking carefully, the nun was so much looked like a Japanese nun.
In my guess, painters at the end of Choson dynasty began to be influenced from Japanese style of painting. The face was not Korean traditional woman’s face.
Other paintings were also different from the traditional ones. It was a subject of paintings. The real landscape of Seoul city was very rare in the traditional paintings. But with the influence from the West, the painters in Choson Kingdom tried to change the subject of the paintings.
In traditional paintings, the landscape was painted for the idealistic place.
One thing impressive was a painting seemed to be influenced from the Cubism. This painting was said to be made after the liberation from Japanese colonial rule.
This painting was the last one in the exhibition.

@slowwalker, Yeah..That's very different paintings from Korean's traditional once. First painting very close to Japanese woman. Like these women lived in Japanese culture.

Nice that such historical evidences are survived the time and now in a safe place. I like the second landscape painting, it is so complex, with tiny houses. I can imagine those people who enjoyed to do such detailed work that might have taken them huge amount of time.
The last painting is really unusual, I love that style of geometric figures, it is modern and it is unusual to see among the traditional oriental exhibition. Thank you for sharing these beautiful works :)
