Abstract

This Study is aimed at reviewing envoys' portraits and paintings of farewell party mirrored an academic and cultural association with Chinese during tribute missions. Paintings of farewell party were worked a figure painting and poetry by Chinese literati to promote their friendship, and therefore can be verified participants in the elegant gathering. Envoys' portraits of a front view with uniform, painted by Chinese painters in the itinerary and accommodation, are different between the Korean portraits with side view. But they kept their hands folded in the long sleeves unlike Chinese portraits with hands above the belt and in their laps. This Study uncovered something new about the age of the Songjocheongaekguiguksijang-do and the portraits of Gim Yuk, and released the portrait of Choe Yongso painted about 1422 and Chijihoesu-cheop related to Bark Jega. Songjocheongaekguiguksijang-do is the oldest documentary painting depicted farewell of Joseon envoy and Ming government officials in the Capital Nanjing. These paintings embody an introduction of portraits by Chinese painters and the personal exchange in the Sino-Korean diplomatic relations in Joseon Period.
