A gisa was a special gathering held to honor high-ranking officials who were over 70 years old. This album, containing articles and paintings, was produced to record a gathering of elders held in 1719 (the 45th year of King Sukjong’s reign), and was completed in 1720. King Sukjong was present at this gathering with eleven retainers of the second rank or higher, including Yi Yu (1645-1721). The album also contains the king’s writing, a foreword, a postscript, paintings of scenes from the gathering, portraits of the participants, and celebratory poems. At the end of the album is a list of five people who produced the album, including Yi Ui-bang, an official in charge of writings and paintings, and Kim Jin-yeo, a court painter.
