EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable costume ornament from the Goryeo period, dating back to the 12th-13th century. Created by an unknown artist, this exquisite piece features a striding dragon, symbolizing power and strength in Korean mythology. The intricate details of the bronze brooch are truly mesmerizing - from its gilded surface to the delicate green and gold hues that adorn it. Displayed against a pristine white background, this close-up image allows us to appreciate every aspect of this ancient treasure. Its golden color evokes a sense of grandeur and opulence, while its decorative design speaks volumes about the artistic prowess of the Goryeo dynasty. Preserved within the Arthur M Sackler Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution's Freer Gallery of Art, this artifact serves as both an educational tool and a testament to Korea's rich cultural heritage. As we delve into its mythological significance and marvel at its craftsmanship, we are transported back in time to an era where mythical creatures roamed freely in people's imaginations. This print not only captures a moment frozen in history but also invites us to explore our fascination with ancient civilizations and their artistic achievements. It is through such objects that we can connect with our past and gain insights into different cultures across time.
