Geumo Gathering Album, Gwangmyeong

This album was owned by Yi In-bok (1683–1730), the fifth-generation descendant of Ori Yi Won-ik, and by his son Yi Eon-chung (1716–1776), during their respective terms as a dosa (magistrate) of the Uigeumbu, the State Tribunal. The four Geumo Gathering Albums owned by Yi In-bok — made in December 1713 (the 39th year of King Sukjong), May 1714 (the 40th year of King Sukjong), September 1714 and November 1714 — were presented to him by junior officials over the fourteen months he served following his appointment as Uigeumbu dosa. The single album owned by Yi Eon-chung, made in 1756 (the 32nd year of King Yeongjo), was produced in preparation for his myeonsillye, an initiation ceremony required of newly appointed officials, after he too became Uigeumbu dosa. The albums are valued for their ruled borders drawn in red ink on thick mulberry paper (jangji), and for recording a panoramic view of the Geumo (an alternate name for the Uigeumbu), scenes of the official gathering (gyehoe), and a roster listing the titles of those who attended.
