Chinese paintings about Mid-Autumn Festival

Mid-Autumn Festival with Seven Character Couplet

Artist: Tang Yun

A painting of rabbits and osmanthus under the mid-autumn moon with a seven character couplet.

The seven character couplet comes from a classical Chinese poem The Taste of Tea written by Lu You, who was a great poet in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). The poetry depicted a cup of tea that put the poet in mind of the times when he was with his old friends many years ago.
