Cai Shen - God of Prosperity

God of Prosperity Wall Scroll close up view

Close up view of the artwork mounted to this silk brocade wall scroll

This is Cai Shen, the God of Prosperity in China. Images of this semi-deity, along with the God of Good Luck are often seen around China (often on doors of homes) around Chinese New Years. This one is nicer than most, and is a real keeper, something to hang on your wall year after year to bring you and your family prosperity.

There's an inscription which reads, 納東南西北財迎春夏鞦冬福
This means roughly, "Bringing you prosperity from the north, west, east, and south" (or prosperity coming from all directions).

Gary's random little facts about China:

Crossing the Street: Human Frogger in China
If you are from my generation, you may remember the video game called "Frogger". It involved crossing a busy road while narrowly dodging cars and truck, often both in front of and behind you at the same time.

Well you can play real live Frogger every time you cross the street in China. It is perfectly normal to cross a four or six-lane road, one lane at a time. You stand motionless on the white, dashed line between lanes as cars and trucks whiz by you on both sides with only inches to spare. When the next lane is clear, you advance (there is no retreat in this game, that could get you killed, since drivers in China would never expect that).

If you did this in America, drivers would come to a screeching halt and think you were crazy (they might even tell you so, using colorful words and hand gestures). It is simply a different culture, or rather a different way of doing things in modern Chinese culture.
