The structure housing the furnace frames the scene depicting the different stages of smithing and working metal (dae-jang-i): the blacksmith and his assistants are spread out, doing different hazardous and strenuous tasks, from controlling the fire and forging wrought iron to getting ready the required utensils. A woman can be seen among the five men, a rarity in this kind of painting and which, for this very reason, underscores the importance of ancestral depictions of this quality.Carla Alferes Pinto in the Catalogue Portuguese Presence in Asia, Museu do Oriente, p. 440-442 The artist Kim Jun-geun was a Korean Christian painter who worked during the last two decades of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Having adopted the artistic name Kisan, he was best known for over three hundred watercolours depicting local folklore and customs, and in 1892 for illustrating the Korean translation of John Bunyan
