시로 그린 풍속화－李奎象의 詩世界

Abstract

In the 18th century, Korean poetry learned the spirit of ancient poetry such as naturalness and simplicity, but it was argued that poetry should contain the 景[Scenery] and Emotion[情] that the poet saw and felt. True poetry[眞詩], in which Joseon poets directly see Joseon's scenery and write down their excitement, emerged as a topic of conversation for poetry during this period. This was an important trend of poetry in the 18th century. The author who best showed this trend through creation is Lee Gyu-sang李奎象. Lee Gyu-sang painted the scenery of rural and fishing villages beautifully like a genre painting, not a landscape painting. Although he learned Tang poetry, he opened a new stage by connecting it with the affection of the Joseon people. The genre paintings drawn by Lee Kyu-sang in poetry are suitable for the paintings of Kim Hong-do. Although he lived in the era of an artist named Jeong Seon, it is the achievement of his poem to realize Kim Hong-do's painting first with poetry. In addition, It is also noteworthy that the characteristics of Lee Kyu-sang's poems are confirmed in poems such as Lee Yang-yeon李亮淵 and Lee Mi李瀰.
