Description

Joseon wangjo uigwe (The Royal Protocols of the Joseon Dynasty) is a vast collection of books (generically called Uigwe) illustrating the details of important royal rituals and ceremonies of the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). Resulted from the tradition rarely found in other dynasties including those in China, the books are tangible evidence to show the zeal and commitment of the Joseon dynasty to the Confucian ethical principles and the system of record keeping on state affairs. This particular book, Hwaseong seongyeok uigwe (The Royal Protocols on the Construction of the Fortified City of Hwaseong), comprises ten volumes and nine books, and is currently stored in the National Museum of Korea.
