2019 예올주니어 석조전 관람 (YÉOL Junior visit Seokjojeon in Deoksugung Palace ​)​

 

지난 3월 14일, 덕수궁의 주요 전각 중 하나인 석조전에 방문하였습니다. 조선시대 궁중건물 중 대표적인 유럽풍의 석조건물인 석조전은 구한말에 완공되어 고관대신과 외국사절을 만나는 등 다양한 용도로 사용되었고, 일제에 의해 미술관이 되기도 한 비극의 역사를 갖고 있습니다. 

고종황제에 의해 건설된 석조전을 통해 대한제국에서 일제강점기로 넘어가는 찬란하고 슬픈 역사를 느낄 수 있는 소중한 시간이었습니다.
