"Freaky Tiger and Magpie" is a Korean 19th-century Minhwa folk painting that showcases the popular folk art themes of ancient Korea. The painting depicts a tiger with a ridiculous expression and a magpie, both of which were common subjects in Minhwa paintings. The tiger in the painting represents the ruling elite, and its ridiculous expression is a satirical commentary on their behavior. The magpie, on the other hand, represents the common people and is depicted in a dignified manner.
Minhwa paintings, also known as "folk paintings," were created by common people and often reflect their daily lives and beliefs. They were typically created using vibrant colors, bold brushstrokes, and a variety of symbolic elements. This painting is a prime example of the Minhwa tradition, which is known for its lively and expressive style.
