    Korean Royal Heritage: Portrait of Prince Ŭn Yi, 1900s

    $19.95

    This photograph features Ŭn Yi, the Prince of Korea, who played a significant role in the countrys royal lineage during a tumultuous period in its history. Born in 1897, Ŭn Yi was a member of the Joseon Dynasty, which ruled Korea for several centuries. His life marked the transition into the 20th century, a time when Korea faced growing external pressures and internal changes, particularly as it neared the point of annexation by Japan in 1910.

    The context of this photograph reflects a critical era of Korean history characterized by modernization and significant socio-political shifts. By 1907, the Korean Empire was navigating the complexities of its sovereignty, asserting independence in the face of encroachment from foreign powers. This portrait captures not just a royal figure, but also the historical landscape of a nation grappling with its identity and place in the world. The image represents a connection to royal family dynamics and offers insight into the cultural heritage that shaped modern Korea.

    This photographic print serves as an important document for understanding the historical context surrounding Korea’s monarchy. It provides a valuable glimpse into the personal and political challenges faced by Prince Ŭn Yi, adding to our knowledge of Koreas royal history during a pivotal era.
