Chilbosan Mountain

This painting portrays the renowned Chilbosan Mountain in Hamgyeong-do Province, along with its picturesque surroundings rendered in rich shades of deep green and blue. The artist meticulously details the layered ridges, peaks, and rugged rocks as viewed from an elevated perspective. In the background, the undulating waves of the East Sea beyond the distant mountains enhance the painting's grandeur. The composition presents the entirety of Chilbosan, starting at the lower center and extending outward in a V-shaped arrangement. This design underscores the artist's intent to vividly convey the majesty and depth of the expansive landscape.
