In the West, horse painting has been considered a symbol of victory, freedom, and companionship. The portraits of medieval knights necessarily featured horses, and the posture of the horses meant the person's dignity and fate.
After the Renaissance, European aristocrats presented horse portraits, meaning, "You and I go in the same direction." In particular, the horse's front foot position contained challenges and victories, and the horse standing still contained the meaning of trust and stability.
The East was no different. The word painting, which symbolizes success, leap, and energy, is not just a decoration, but it means supporting the other person's future.
Among them, the most famous painting is Paljundo (八駿 painting), which depicts a famous horse, eighty years old, which was cherished by Taejo Lee Seong-gye, who founded Joseon. Eight heads with different search and characteristics, including Eungsangbaek, who rode on the Yalu River during the Weihua-do Reunion, are depicted with short narratives.
An official from the Korean Horse Association said, "The picture can also be read as a symbol of a person's entire life journey, and it would be good to choose a piece of horses or horses as a unique gift with a message of support for the year of the end of the disease."
