Dezső Bozóky hand-coloured glass diapositive. Photograph taken by Dezső Bozóky. Related item: A.4760.2.28.3. (photo). The originally ten-storey Wongaksa Pagoda in Tapgol Park, built in 1468. The uppermost three storeys, which fell on the ground during the 1592–1598 Japanese invasion, can be seen behind the man in the dark coat. Approaching from the direction of the pagoda are Bozóky’s fellow officers. Further off, the curved roof of what is probably the entrance to the park can be seen, as well as its fence, and in the distance, some of the
bare mountains that surround Seoul.
