Visit the New Year Exhibition to Celebrate the New Year

The National Art Museum of China held an art exhibition on the theme of the Year of the Snake titled “Auspicious New Year” on the first floor. As soon as you enter the door, you will see a large area of ​​Chinese red, a scene of prosperity! The exhibition includes Sui Ci Shan dance couplets, Nuo opera masks of the snake god, Manchu embroidered pillow tops with snake and bird patterns, paper-cuts of snakes and rabbits, lizard toys, painted sculptures of the Legend of the White Snake, white snake shadow puppets, etc. There are many kinds of things on display, and all kinds of folk items containing snake elements have been collected. There is an introduction on the wall that since ancient times, snakes have been revered and worshipped as animal gods by people. "Snake coiled around rabbit, generations of wealth." This pattern contains profound cultural connotations and the symbolic meaning of the animal totem of a snake holding a frog. All in all, these are people's worship of nature and blessings for a better life. I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a happy new year in advance! May all go well with you! May you have surplus every year!
