The genre of 'flowers and birds' spread in Korea especially in the final part of the Joseon dynasty (1392-1897) and in the first decades of the 20th century. Despite the evident affinities with Chinese painting, the style of these compositions is distinguished by its originality which is a mirror of Korean figurative culture.
