The Virtue of the Tiger

In Korean culture, the lotus flower symbolizes creation, birth and reproduction. Another important element is the tiger, an animal that has an important role in the myth of Dangun, which tells the birth of the Korean civilization. The overall mood of the scene shows a tiger with virtue and benevolence walking behind a full bloomed lotus flower that keeps growing regardless of the obstacles and harsh conditions of the environment.
