Kim Jae-ha is shown standing in this portrait, attired in a ceremonial robe and an official hat. A rank badge embroidered with a twin-tiger design is attached to the front of the robe. According to the Chinese characters written in the top right of the portrait, Kim Jae-ha was born in the Gyechuk Year, while the portrait itself was painted in the 11th lunar month of the Euryu Year. The use of white paint for the face and a deep color for the pockets and the knots of the lower part of the robe is very extraordinary. It is thought that this portrait is a reproduction made in the 20th century.
