Traditional Korean art also has Tigers. One wonders if the scholar painter might have seen a tiger from a distance as this is somewhat more accurate than depictions based on seeing a tigerskin rug?

MUNJADO KOREAN STYLE CHARACTER LOYALTY
This is the character for Loyalty. I'm surprised that there seems to be anything similar to MUNJADO in the art of any of the East Asian cultures apart from Korea? I know "Proper" artistic calligraphy is ideally black and white and on paper but I like Munjado too! The only thing I can think of that's sorta similar is rainbow letters!
