About this piece

⚱️ Shin Yun-bok: Master of Refined Romance Shin Yun-bok Sin Yunbok 신윤복 (pen name Hyewon) was one of the most distinctive painters of Korea's Joseon Dynasty. Renowned for his delicate brushwork and bold subject matter, he captured moments of leisure, romance, music, and dance—often focusing on women and intimate human emotions. His paintings are celebrated for their lyrical mood, refined color palette, and subtle sensuality, offering a unique perspective on 18th–19th century Korean society. ⚱️ Durable Coaster Design This set includes six round coasters, each measuring 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter. Made with a durable plastic surface and cork backing, they are firm, stable, and suitable for daily use while protecting surfaces from heat and moisture. ⚱️ Six Iconic Paintings Each coaster features a different painting by Shin Yun-bok.
