This eight-page album contains paintings of the immortals. Chinese characters on the sheet attached to the inside of the cover state that the works in this album were painted by Jo Se-geol, an artist from the 17th century. Each page contains an image of the immortals exquisitely portrayed in subdued colors. They are markedly distinct from the paintings of the immortals fashioned in the late-Joseon period.
