The album containing Dezső Bozóky's travelphotos (second). Related item: A.4760.2. (album). Unknown photographer. Photograph purchased by Dezső Bozóky. A man in the uniform of a government official, the geumgwan jobok (“officials’ ceremonial attire with gold-coated coronet”). While the monarch introduced new uniforms after 1897, the officials’ attire seen in this picture continued to be used: it was worn at the great annual sacrifice presented to the emperor’s ancestors.
