拍品专文

Deer and cranes symbolize long life, as they are both companions of Shoulao, the god of Longevity. In addition, the Chinese word for deer is a homophone with the word for 'emoluments'. The deer and crane can also symbolize a married couple. Taken together with the pine tree, which is an evergreen, they form the rebus helu tongchun (may the couple be forever young).
