Minhwa: Korean Decorative Paintings

Paintings of birds and flowers (hwajodo) depict a beautiful harmony of botany and beast.

Bright and full of vitality, the paintings present a large array of flora and fauna, blooming and fading at the whim of nature, and the birds of all colors, coming and going throughout the year. These paintings are not only a beautiful, realistic representation of nature, but a reservoir of symbolism pervading in the happy, harmonious depiction of the plants and animals.
