An Kyŏn (Korean: 안견; Hanja: 安堅; fl. 15th century) was a Korean painter of the early Joseon period. He was born in Jigok, Seosan, South Chungcheong Province. He entered royal service as a member of the Dohwaseo, the official painters of the Joseon court. In 1447, he drew Mongyu dowondo, a landscape painting for Grand Prince Anpyeong. Considered the oldest landscape painting by a Korean artist, the painting is currently stored at Tenri University.[1]
His art name was Hyŏndongja (현동자; 玄洞子) and his courtesy name was Kado (가도; 可度).[2]
