Self-portrait<br /><br />

Self-portrait with a Fan<br />부채를 든 자화상
figure, Go Hui-dong
Go Hui-dong left only three pieces of oil paintings, and this is one of them. On the one hand, this painting contains traditional Korean customs, on the other hand, Western oil painting's influence can be seen in terms of composition and technique. This painting is influenced by Kuroda Seiki's <em>Duke Matsukata </em>in terms of composition.

Self-portrait<br />자화상
figure, Go Hui-dong
The exact date of this self-portrait has been a matter of some contention. It was
unsigned, and there are no records indicating its exhibition history or even whether the work had been publicly shown at all. This self-portrait is presumed to be a portrait study for graduation work. If it is true, this painting can be the first Western painting in Korea. In comparison to other self-portrait, the density of brush strokes in this painting is low.
