Home : Practical Training Room >Korean Women through Pictures

The Korean Women through Pictures Website is one of the content development projects headed by the Asian Pacific Women's Information Network Center (APWINC). We have been running the database since March 1999 with the following goals in mind. So far, approximately 100 images of Korean women are compiled. We plan to add more in the future.

Goals

Multimedia database of images of Korean women, in various paintings, drawings, and photos

  • - Organize the information by era and genre
    Koguryo burial mound mural, Koryo painting, Chosun painting, Enlightenment period photo, drawings by non-Koreans
  • - Provide accurate factual information on selected items (author, year, size, style, possession, origin, etc.)
  • - Provide high-quality, high-resolution images (enlarged images)
  • - Provide the same content in English

The Korean Women through Pictures Website only uses the data in ways that do not infringe on copyrights.
