Kim Song Ei Advisor :Prof. Cho Song Sik Department of Aesthetic and Art History Graduate School of Chosun University

Neung-ho-kwan Lee In-sang earned a reputation as the literati painter who portrayed plainly but clearly in late Joseon Dynasty. He was from loyal family but his grand-grand father was concubines son. Thus, he lived in paradox of position for his whole life. According to his literary work, however, he associated with more than one-hundred people, and there were a lot more people who respected him due to his state of consciousness and his paintings even after he died. He is well-known as a painter who mastered the style of literati painting, which was introduced in the middle of the Joseon Dynasty and then became popular around the end of the Joseon Dynasty. The painting of literati does not put emphasis on just portraying a form, but on understanding by seeing through true nature, which we call spiritual art style. In other words, people can get sense of artist’s personality by appreciating artist’s art work based on internal aspects. Nobody knows when the painting of literati started, but we can guess that according to the 南北宗論 which is started by Dong Gi-chang, it was originated in 渲染法 by Wang Yu from Tang Dynasty. The painting of Literati portrays the spirit or intelligence of the painter formatively, and it is introduced by the books which were brought by some people who adventured in the middle of Joseon Dynasty. To name a few books, for example, there were『芥子園畵傳』or 『唐詩畵譜』. Lee In-sang did not leave any theory about his style of painting, but we could speculate from his art works. From the letter which Lee sent to Kim Sang-suk, we could guess that he emphasized the clearness and liveliness of spirit(筋骨氣韻). From the quotation of the Kim Jung-hee who mastered calligraphic works in the late Joseon Dynasty, he could understand what the ‘文字香’ and ‘書卷氣’ truly were, so he spoke very highly of Lee’s world of art when he saw style of painting and writing.
