, better known as '''Danwon''' (1745–c. 1806), was a painter of the late
Joseon Period . A member of the Gwangju
Kim clan, he grew up in present-day
Ansan, South Korea , where he was taught by Pyo-am
Gang Se-hwang , one of the most famous calligraphers of the day. He entered royal service as a member of the
Dohwaseo , the official painters of the Joseon court, and drew the portrait of King
Jeongjo .
Danwon is known as the first Korean painter to extensively portray Korean daily life, in a manner analogous to the
Dutch Masters . Because of this, his paintings today are valued almost as much for the insight they shed on daily life in Joseon as for their inherent aesthetic value.
Danwon is remembered today as one of the "Three Wons," together with
Hyewon and
Owon . He is also often joined to Owon and the 15th century painter
An Gyeon as one of Joseon's three greatest painters.
Danwon's works are still widely treasured. The city of Ansan, where he spent his youth and learned his craft, has memorialized him in many ways. The district of
Danwon-gu is named after him, as is Ansan's annual "Danwon Art Festival." Many public places have been designed in imitation of his works.
