India ink. The painting is of
Naegeumgang, the Inner Mt. Geumgangsan. The painting depicts a total of twelve thousand peaks. The highest peak, Birobong, lies in the background and water flows from it toward a valley called Manpokdong which is divided from the left and right. The high sharp peaks are depicted by the artist with lines painted up and down while the artist used a dotting brush method to depict the earthen peaks, making them appear relatively soft and lush. This composition harmonizes the contrasting sharp edges of the rocky peaks with the softer earthen peaks.

The brush strokes are not the same. Moreover, the painting uses Mt. Geumgang (้ๅ), the spring name of Mt. Diamond, for its title, while the poem uses Mt.

While many contemporaneous painters imitated the latest art trends from China, Jeong Seon ignored these to create unique themes based on Korean landscapes. His catalogue of paintings of
Geumgansan made him famous and the preeminent painter of his time at the age of 37. He eventually painted around

This inscription has been used to date the painting to winter 1734, when Jeong Seon was 59 years old. (1734 was the only gap-in year during Jeong Seon's life). But a more precise analysis undertaken by Gang Gwan-sik has shown that this 60 characters inscription has not been written by Jeong Seon.
