description | The aim of research study is a revelation of the multi-layered image of the tiger in the spiritual and religious life of Vietnam, from local totem beliefs to world religions through explanations and illustrations of thematic wood prints of several centers.
Results. An analysis of the symbolic connotations associated with one of the key figures of the country’s zoomorphic pantheon makes it possible to evidentiate the ambivalence of its essence, a vivid embodiment of the contradictory features of which is interpreted in different ways in culture and art.
Scope of the results. The results of this study can heighten the interest in the culture of Vietnam as a whole, as well as to contribute to the representation expansion about popular folk prints as one of the most traditional and original types of Vietnamese fine art and can be applied in its in-depth analysis.
