Kang Sehwang (Korean painter and calligrapher, 1713-1791)

Note: The calligrapher and painter Kang Sehwang served as a painting and calligraphy critic and a civil official during the late Joseon period. He was well versed in poetry, calligraphy, and painting. Since his youth, Kang actively engaged in creating and reviewing paintings and calligraphic works. He was a teacher of the court painter Kim Hongdo (1745–after 1806) and the literati painter Shin Wi (1769–1845). He maintained friendships with other painters such as Sim Sajeong (1707–1769) and Kim Eunghwan (1742–1789). Based on his emphasis on realism, he developed “true-view” landscape painting (jingyeong sansuhwa), figure painting, and genre painting. He also pioneered the adoption of Western painting influences. Kang learned the calligraphic styles of Mi Fu and Zhao Mengfu. He was skilled at seal engraving and mastered various calligraphic styles. He particularly enjoyed using running script.
