Bronze Dragon

A bronze dragon, exuding both majesty and mystery, welcomes visitors. The National Palace Museum's bronze dragon exhibition is centered around artifacts symbolizing the authority and sanctity of the royal court. Each scale of the dragon is intricately carved, and the curves and expressions showcase the craftsmanship of the artisans. These bronze dragons, used as ceremonial or decorative items in the royal court during the Joseon Dynasty, vary in form and patterns depending on the era, making them fascinating. The shimmering texture of the bronze under the light gives it an almost lifelike, mystical quality. Encountering this symbol of royalty in the serene exhibition hall leaves an overwhelming impression. It is a moment to feel the connection between the king, the heavens, and the dragon, and to experience the profound depth of Joseon art.
