A Tale of Two Scrolls: A Pair of Korean Paintings in Japanese Mountings from the Frank S. Bayley Collection
Tanya Uyeda | SAM Senior Conservator of East Asian Paintings
Scroll mountings not only beautifully display and protect artworks, they also contain important information related to history, provenance, and connoisseurship. Tanya Uyeda will discuss Wagtail on a Rock and Wagtail and Chrysanthemums, two 17th-century Korean paintings mounted Japanese style, on view at the Seattle Asian Art Museum. She will share the collaborative research being undertaken to inform future conservation treatment of these complex artworks, while navigating geopolitical legacies, historic preservation and cultural integrity.
