About the painting
The pomegranates represent vigorous fertility because of the fruit's numerous seeds--a pun implying sons. The image in art, therefore, is imbued with a good wish for numerous offspring.
The playful poem reads:
While eating pearl-like pomegranate seeds
I also throw the seeds at sparrows
I painted this at age 83.
