Abstract

This paper explores the role and significance of visual images in the field of history. It examines how visual sources such as photographs, paintings, and other visual media contribute to historical understanding and interpretation. The study delves into the methodologies employed by historians to analyze visual images, discusses the epistemological implications of visual evidence, and considers the challenges and limitations associated with using visual images in historical research. Through a review of literature and case studies, the paper aims to highlight the importance of visual images as both sources and subjects of historical inquiry, with a particular focus on the representation of Korean women.
