O obrazie
Wu Changshuo painted Pomegranates in 1927; the work is in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Minneapolis. The many seeds carry a pun on sons, turning the fruit into a wish for numerous children. In his playful inscription, Wu describes eating the pearl-like seeds and tossing some at sparrows, then records that he painted the picture aged eighty-three. On view in gallery G203.
Opis muzeum
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.
