This wall scroll is discounted because of a minor tear that was repaired (barely visible) and a couple of very minor spots in the painting. They're kind of ghost marks that you may not have noticed if I did not tell you about it.

福壽雙全

Good Luck

This is a unique form of calligraphy. It's a Chinese character that is made to look like an actual figure. In this case, a person carrying a "bag of plenty" because good fortune has come their way.

The large character is also a representation of "fu" which means good luck and good fortune in Chinese. Below that is the title "fu shou shuang quan" which basically means "may your good fortune and longevity be doubled". This is a common wish offered or given to older people in China.

About the Artist...

This was painted by a very shy artist named Ye Ying-Xing from near Guilin, China. I asked if I could take his picture, but he politely refused with a gesture of modesty. He does not seek fame, and in another gesture of Chinese modesty, he insulted his own artwork, saying that it was not good enough to make such a fuss over.

I think the artwork is worthy, and offers a unique and different style that most people in the west have never seen before (it's even rare in China).
