Abstract

The purpose of this study is to discuss the ‘Jangjumyoamdo’ that was produced in 1746 (the 24th year of King Youngjo’s (1694~1776) rule by his royal command. This anonymous but royal and political painting depicts the backyard of the palace that was described in Sir Hoiam Jangjumyoamdogi. King Youngjo attempted in his royal poem to have Zhūzǐ’s backyard and enlightenment ‘Kisumuwoo’ featured in painting. In Zhūzǐ’s backyard, Hwangkeuk through Hongbeomguju was expressed, while the Goesang of Changes of Book was depicted. ‘Jangjumyoamdo’ features simple coloring and depicting, while using Bugamsibeop to simply and concisely describe the backyard as if it were seen from the air. This study discusses the painting characteristics of ‘Jangjumyoamdo’ and King Youngjo’s motives or ‘Hongbemguju’, ‘Hwangguk’ and ‘Kisumuwoo’. King Youngjo sympathizing with Zhūzǐ’s political doctrine attempted to present his governance philosophy and realize the ideal rule of ‘Naeseongoewang’ (sage inside and king outside) through ‘Hongbeomguju’ and ‘Kisumuwoo’.
