Yi Chae was a scholar who lived in late Joseon. This shows him at the age of 59. He is donning a black hat known as dongpagwan and a simui, a white scholar’s jacket. The white jacket has a collar in a contrasting black band. A large sash woven with threads in five colors, representing the four cardinal directions and the center, drapes down from the mid-chest level.
