Dragon Crest Crewneck Pullover
Based on the Dragon Robe the emperor of Korea historically wore, I wanted to make my own version again to celebrate 2024's Year of the Blue Dragon.
Surrounding the dragon is the Irworobongdo (일월오봉도), a famous painting depicting the sun, moon, and five peaks of power that was set behind the emperor's throne for hundreds of years during the Joseon dynasty. I added some clouds to the help frame the dragon, but otherwise stayed faithful to the original.
On the sleeve I placed the dragons facing out so they are protective and watching out for the wearer. The text says "용하다" (yonghada) which means exceptional, commendable, and outstanding. "용" (yong) is also the word for dragon.
I hope this design reminds the wearer they are great and formidable and brings them lots of good fortune this year and after.
- Original design screen printed on soft 50%cotton 50%polyester unisex sweatshirt hoodies. - Print on front chest and both sleeves- Since each hoodie is screen printed, each one is special and no two shirts are exactly alike. There is natural variance of print density and location.- Please take into your consideration that monitor calibrations are all different and the color you see might slightly differ from the photo.
