mrja=IppuShin Yun-bok, better known by his pen name Hyewon, (b. 1758) was a
Korea n painter of theJoseon Dynasty . Like his contemporariesDanwon andGeungjae , he is known for his realistic depictions of daily life in his time. His paintings are distinctly more erotic than Danwon's, a fact which contributed to his expulsion from the royal painting institute,Dohwaseo . Painting was frequently a hereditary occupation in the Joseon period, and Hyewon's father and grandfather had both been court painters.Together with Danwon and the later painter
Owon , Hyewon is remembered today as one of the "Three Wons" of Joseon-period painting.Gallery
