Description: This is an embroidery recreation of a famous painting from a modern famous scholar, calligrapher, brush painter and poet -- Fan Zeng (1938-present). Fan Zeng is proficient in line drawing especially for figures in brush painting. His historical figure paintings are delicate, casual and elegant, lifelike and vivid.

The girl and the goats are graceful and look composed and peaceful. San Yang Kai Tai means: feminine energy is getting weaker, masculine energy is getting stronger, spring is coming and good fortune will begin. Also this is the phrase which Chinese people would use to address others or each other on Chinese New Year, especially during the Year of the Sheep. The phrase means good wishes and good luck.

This is a well stitched piece of embroidery. Chinese artists are good at combining poetry, calligraphy, paintings and stamps, even some empty spaces perfectly together. All the Chinese characters and stamps were embroidered well here too.
