Joseon Winter Afternoon, Tree
Red hues in sky come from pagoda pillars; about 60%.
Chinese writing from manuscript (circa 15th century?). Artifact in National Museum of Korea.
Writing overlayed when darker than 1st layer.  Layed white on top layer in selected points to remove some writing.
Biting cold of - 10 C day ate away at the photographer's fingers; prompting a retreat into the warmth of the museum.
While shivering, I focused on tree with pagoda beyond the frozen pond.  Compared to the manuscript, the pagoda style is relatively modern, modelled from 12th century architecture.
