Lady Dai's painted silk banner is a precious window into Han-dynasty legends and funeral practice; it was carried in front of the funeral procession, then draped upon her coffin. Banners like this were employed to attract the spirit of the deceased to its tomb, where it could be properly started on its afterlife journey instead of remaining on earth to bother the living
Portrait of Sin Sukju (1417-1475). Imperial Bureau of Painting, Ink on Silk. c. 15th century CE. Joseon Period, Korea.
Sin Suk-ju was an accomplished scholar and a powerful politician who rose to th e rank of Prime Minister. He is remembered especially for his participation in the creation of Hangeul (Korean Alphabet).
In this seated portrait, Shin Suk-ku is wearing a green court official’s costume and a black silk hat representative of his wealth, power and authority.
The large chest patch, or rank badge is embroidered with golden clouds and peacocks in the new style that first appeared in Joseon. It showcases his status as an official in the government. The painting depicts his distinguised service to the emperor.
The face appears to have been retouched several times, even after it was globally re-worked in 1475 (the 6th year of King Seongjong’s reign).
Nevertheless, it looks quite natural and is meticulously painted.
His green gown is constructed with sharp , angular lines accented with light and shadows. With proper decorum to his status and rank, his hands are concealed and folded into his gown.
The character and personality of Sin Suk-ju shine through in this portrait. His face reveals wrinkles and bone structure as well as a moustache. All of these physical elements lend to an effect of wisdom and dignity.
This silk painting, remarkable for both the line drawing and colors, is a work of outstanding artistic merit . At the sitters demise, it would be hung in the fmily shrine for ancestor worship.
