Two details: a goldfish at rest, and a fish in gentle motion. The goldfish is a symbol of abundance. Elegant calligraphy shares the silk with the painted scene. The silk surface keeps the tones mellow and easy on the eyes. A calm anchor in a restless visual world. It gives a room something to be about.
