New Book Available: KOREAN DRAGONS

The Sanshin Icon of Seoul's An-san Yongam-sa [Dragon-Rock Temple], just below Bongwon-sa

Traditional Asian painting of a wise man, two attendants, and a tiger in a natural setting.

The Sanshin [Mountain-spirit] painting in the Main Dharma Hall of Seoul's An-san Yongam-sa --- a good modern one.

Traditional painting of two women in colorful robes holding flowers and a basket.

Boy & girl dongja [attendants] offering sacred fruits and flowers, interacting with each-other.

A stylized tiger prowling through a forest with vibrant colors.

The modern, realistic tiger.

Artistic painting of stylized trees with textured bark and abstract landscape.

Red pine trees, and what seems to be water-waves in the background --- poorly done, or abstractly done??

Traditional painting of a wise, elderly man in ornate robes holding a white feather fan.

Main Sanshin figure, holding a white-crane-feather fan, looks wise & pleased..!

The Assembly of Guardian Spirits Icon there in the Main Hall. Strange that there is no Dragon-King, especially as this temple is named "Dragon-Rock"! In fact there is no Yong-wang altar or icon in all the temple --- a very strange omission.
