Buddhist musicians (gut-jung-pae-mo-yang). Gut means show; jung, Buddhist monk; pae, group; moyang, appearance; attitude, action. Grouped in a circle, the image shows the acrobatics and musical instruments typical of these public performances and the participants’ joyful, theatrical agility, the prowess of these bodies facilitated by the baggy, low-waisted trousers, and long, uneven sleeves undulating as they move. Carla Alferes Pinto in the Catalogue Portuguese Presence in Asia, Museu do Oriente, p. 440-442 The artist Kim Jun-geun was a Korean Christian painter who worked during the last two decades of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.
