🖼 ONE LINE FROM THIS PAINTING
"Within the splendor of a great feast, what should I look for?"
📝ONGO's Reflection
This feast painted by Kim Hong-do is packed thick with people. The merriment of a banquet held for the governor fills the picture, yet my eye goes to the nameless ones standing at its edges. Because there are hands that carry the trays and tend to the seating, a feast becomes a feast at all. Behind every clamorous achievement there is always the quiet labor of someone. An eye that recognizes this makes a person deep.
