| Description: This
is a very nice painting. On the table covered by
the indigo cloth are the gifts for the Moon Festival.
In the lacquer box are moon cakes, bananas, pineapples
and some other cookies in the wrap. Each moon cake
has a Chinese character on it, consisting of the
phrase of Mid-autumn moon cakes. There are also a
lotus root, water caltrops, persimmon and water chestnuts.
A jar of wine and a vase with flowers are also on
the tabletop. The most beautiful detail is the painting
on the vase, an ancient intellect rides on a donkey
and his maid holds the canopy for him. This year's
Moon Festival is on September 28. On this full moon
night, family will get together and enjoy the moon
and food. The chop of the artist is at the lower
left corner. This painting won the 3rd award in the
Ninth Session of "Spring South of the Yangtze
River" Art Exhibition of Shanghai in 1997. |
