Abstract

The banquet held in the palace during the late Joseon Dynasty was held not only on the first day of the year but also at night. Taking this aspect into consideration, etc. were prepared, and the analysis of changes by period is summarized as follows. The characteristic of change over time is that in 1809, the lanterns of Gisajin Pyo-ri Jinchan mainly consisted of candlesticks, embossed lanterns, and Hongsa lanterns in large quantities. This is the early period when sheep-shaped lanterns appeared in rituals related to banquets. Starting with Mujajinjak in 1828, hanging lanterns and jochoks to announce the start of a banquet (night banquet) appear in Uigwe's doseoul, and long circular glass lanterns newly appear at Gichukjinchan in 1829. In the 1848 Musin Jinchan, the physical number of lanterns placed in the banquet hall increased, the format of the glass lanterns changed to a square shape, and four lanterns also appeared. The excrement of Mujinjinchan and others continues until Mujinjinchan in 1868. In 1877, a new glass lantern, such as a glass yukwoohwa lantern, appeared at the Jeongchukjinchan ceremony, but it did not appear in later periods. Looking at the characteristics of the Jeongjeongchan in 1887 and the newly built Jinchan in 1901, the number of circular glass lanterns was increased and placed in the hall rather than embossed lanterns and four-colored lanterns. It is thought that favorable lighting was concentrated in the brightness of the light. In 1902, Imin Jinyeon increased the number of all lanterns except for the four lanterns, and the characteristic feature was that the number of large candlesticks, small candlesticks, and red candle lanterns, which did not change, increased, which is a characteristic of the Jinyeon(進宴), Yeonhyangs with many types and quantities are Musin Jinchan, Mujin Jinchan, and Jeongchuk Jinchan. Overall, the lanterns used in banquets changed from an increase in type to an increase in quantity, and from intensive lighting with effective lanterns to lighting with the addition of indirect lighting, and it is believed that lanterns were the key to spatial lighting for banquets held at night in royal banquets.
