depressingfacts: 김홍도의 송하유록도(松下有鹿圖) The Doe Beneath the Pine Tree (drawn by Kim Hong Do) Kim Hong Do, famous for his drawings of people such as his work Shirum which captures a scene of traditional Korean wrestling or his more scandalous paintings of people having sex (He was born around 1745 and no one is sure when he died), is not well known for doing paintings of nature. However, along with the Songhayoorokdo (pictured above) he also painted a picture of a similar theme with a lion beneath a pine tree called Songhamaenghodo(송하맹호도(松下猛虎圖)) pictured below. Along with various paintings done during his trip to Kum Kang Mountain, the Songha series are some of the few paintings of Kim Hong Do which focus in nature. The Songhayoorokdo is famous, however, for the pine tree which stems from not the earth but from cracks in the rocks of the mountain.
