This artwork presents a commanding vision of a Korean queen in resplendent royal hanbok, seated beside a powerful tiger—her guardian and symbol of courage. Her robe, richly woven in crimson and sapphire tones, shimmers with intricate embroidery of mythical motifs and golden accents. A majestic phoenix crown graces her head, signifying authority, rebirth, and divine protection. Set against a backdrop of towering mountains and ancient pine trees, the queen’s steady gaze mirrors the tiger’s fierce strength, creating a scene of unyielding dignity, harmony with nature, and regal sovereignty.
