How this deck reads it

The composition in which a sun with a human face and undulating rays fills the sky makes clear that the light is not a background but the protagonist of the picture. The garden enclosed by a wall full of sunflowers shows that brightness blooms not in open space but in a bounded place, and golden pieces of mother-of-pearl are placed on each petal to create the sensation of light reflecting in all directions.

The child with arms spread wide, the white horse, and the flowers scattered on the ground reveal that clarity is a state without tension. The picture, which uses the vermilion and yellow of dancheong without sparing, contrasts with the more restrained cards and says that this scene is the one place that permits brightness without concealment.

Artwork

A smiling sun with a face spreads wavy rays over a child in colorful striped sleeves riding a white horse, a field of sunflowers and a tiled-roof wall behind.
