This album includes three landscape paintings (accession nos. Deoksu 921-1, 4, 5), two paintings of chrysanthemums (accession nos. Deoksu 921-2, 9), a fragment of a butterfly and flower painting (accession no. Deoksu 921-3), two paintings of Taoist immortals (accession nos. Deoksu 921-6, 7), and a painting of vegetables (accession no. Deoksu 921-8). Seven of the nine pieces bear the signature and seal of Hyeonjae (玄齋). What is unique about this album is that, unlike other paintings, in the painting of the Taoist immortal the background landscape accounts for the greatest portion.
