Timeline of Korean art history

Dear Class!

I would like to introduce a website with reference to Korean art history to you.
It is part of the webpage of the metropolitan museum of art located in New York.
http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/ht/02/eak/ht02eak.htm
This offers a chronological table along with an overview of history, key events
and photos of representative artifacts from that specific period.
If you click the arrow on the top-left, you can move on to the next era.
Also, you can access in-depth info by clicking the hyperlinked photos of artifacts on the top of the page.
It is worth checking out for both those of you who are familiar with Korean history and those of you who are not.
I am assured that it is instructive enough to give you the broad picture of Korean history.

Hope you enjoy it!
