"Boating on the Clear River" is a genre painting by Korean artist Shin Yun-bok, active in the late Joseon Dynasty. The painting depicts a group of elegantly dressed individuals enjoying a leisurely boat ride on a river, surrounded by verdant foliage. It is a masterful example of *minhwa*, a genre of Korean folk painting known for its vibrant colors and detailed depictions of everyday life. The composition is balanced and harmonious, with a focus on capturing the beauty of nature and the refined leisure of the upper class. Shin Yun-bok was known for his *"Genre Paintings"*, often depicting scenes of daily life in Joseon Korea. His use of subtle brushwork and delicate colors creates a sense of tranquility and elegance.
