| Additional Information |
Image was scanned from color slide. Note: Changdeokgung Palace was the second royal villa built following the construction of Gyeongbukgung Palace in 1405. It was the principal palace for many of the Joseon kings and is the most well-preserved of the five remaining royal Joseon palaces. The palace grounds are comprised of a public palace area, a royal family residence building, and the rear garden. The palace gained importance when a number of kings began using it as a place of residence. The palace was burned down in 1592 and restored in 1611. Several cultural treasures are located on the palace grounds, such as Injeongjeon Hall, Daejojeon Hall, Seonjeongjeon Hall, and Nakseonjae.--Official Visit Korea website. Note: 'Naksonjae' (Mansion of Joy and Goodness), a compound within the royal palace, was the private residence of the late Queen 'Yun', wife of the last king, 'Sunjong'.--Cornell University Library. Note: "Ch'aekkori (also known as ch'aekka-do, kiyong-do, k'imyŏghwa, ch'aektak munbang-do, and munbang-do) represent an unusual painting genre that found great favor with scholars...Ch'aek means "book" and kŏri refers to something that attracts people's attention. This type of painting [represents] learning and a scholar's virtue..."--Minhwa : tales of Korean folk paintings by Yoon, Yul-Soo, pages 189-190. Note: Original caption information provided: "Detail of book print screens in living room of Princess Julia- Naksonjae of the Chang Duk Palace Seoul, Korea." |
