A sacred place of Buddhist pilgrimage and a cultural site for centuries, the astonishing landscape of rocky peaks and dramatic waterfalls in the Diamond Mountains (Geumgang), has been largely inaccessible to visitors since the partition of Korea in 1945. Illustrated with 104 reproductions, this study, which accompanied an exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2018, is the first in English to explore the pictorial representation of the mountains, from 18th century Korean true-view painting to the present day.
