This is one of the paintings contained in Haenam Yunssi gajeon gohwacheop (A Collection of Ancient Paintings Handed Down in the Haenam Yun Clan) compiled by Yun Deok-hui (1685-1766), the eldest son of Yun Du-seo (1668-1715, pen-name: Gongjae). The work portrays two boys playing jackstones on a hill with willows while another boy holds a pinwheel. All three figures are watching the jackstones thrown into the air. Their facial expressions, postures, and attire are all skillfully depicted.
