2232CARPLYCHEE

This product is currently out of stock
Description:

This is a one-of-a-kind original art work painted on rice paper. In Chinese arts fish are a symbol of wealth and prosperity. The words in Chinese for "fish" and "abundance" sound alike, giving rise to the common use of fish to represent good fortunes. Specifically the carp fish, depicted in this painting, is also a pun for "large profits." The red hanging fruits in the painting are Lychee, which has linguistic similarities in Chinese with "profit," "good fortune." and "clever." Sometimes the Lychee is also used as a symbol for having sons or establishing an heir. Taken as a whole the painting can be seen as a wish for good fortune and large profits or a successful family.

Original hand painted water color by Chinese artist


Matted in the traditional Chinese manner with white brocade borders.


Ready for frame, mat is easily trimmed to size
