Abstract
This paper explores the representation of Lü Dongbin, a celebrated scholar and poet of the Tang dynasty, in painting and literature of the Chosǒn period. He was recognized not only as a member of the Eight Immortals assembly, but also as a symbolic figure in his own right, and was depicted as a separate painting subject. By taking an interdisciplinary approach and analyzing the ways his figure was treated as a theme in visual arts and reminisced in literature, the present study aims to cast light on the multiple facets of perception of Lü Dongbin by Korean intellectuals and painters.
