영조 대에 조성된 왕실 석물과 현판

Abstract

This paper was written to understand the characteristics of the royal tombstone and the royal signboard produced during the reign of King Yeongjo among the royal materials contained in Geumseokjipcheop. Many of the tombstones and signboards made during the reign of King Yeongjo are engraved with the writings and letters of King Yeongjo’s. King Yeongjo produced a monument for his adoptive mother, Queen Inhyeon, Queen Inwon, and his birth mother Sukbin Choi. King Yeongjo used the expression “sad” a lot in his writings for his close family, and the biggest sadness appears in the tombstones of his eldest daughter-in-law Hyun Bin and eldest grandson Euiso Seson. King Yeongjo honestly expressed his sorrow on the tombstones of a nearby family. The tombstones and signboards made during the reign of King Yeongjo have many letters from the royal family. Specifically, there are letters left by Yeosan-gun Yi Bang, Seopyeong-gun Yi Yo, Yeosun-gun Yi Hak, and Nakpung-gun Yi Mu. In addition, the royal signboards show that the father Kim Jae-ro and his son Kim Chi-in are directly related. The royal signboards seem to have been included in the Geumseokjipcheop because they were produced by these two people themselves. The tombstones and signboards made during the reign of King Yeongjo clearly show a sense of respect for the Ming Dynasty. When marking the time when the tombstone and signboard were produced, the Ming era name was marked when the Ming Dynasty was present, and when the Qing Dynasty was present, only the year was simply marked. In addition, the title given by the Ming emperor to the king of Joseon must be recorded, but the title given by the Qing emperor is not recorded. The royal materials contained in the Geumseokjipcheop clearly show King Yeongjo’s affection for the royal family and his sense of history of inheriting the Ming Dynasty.
