This study examines the rarity of surviving original mounts of traditional Korean paintings and the challenges posed by remounting such works in Chinese or Japanese styles, which often detract from the authentic form of the works. This paper compares two paintings of Yi Jeong (1554–1626) to assess the use and significance of colophons and their role in enhancing scholarly appreciation. The investigation reveals how the refined materials and style used in these mounts reflect the aristocratic origins of Yi Jeong and the high regard his art received during the Joseon dynasty. Furthermore, I will examine historical connections between Yi Jeong’s works and the broader context of Korean literati culture, emphasizing the importance of these works as aesthetic objects and rich cultural artifacts. The findings of this research deepen the understanding of Korean traditional paintings, underscoring the necessity of preserving their authentic mounting styles to honor their historical significance.
