Yangliuqing is a small town in Tianjin. It cultivates many artists who are specialized in new year paintings – a type of traditional Chinese painting. New year paintings appeared during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and reached their heyday during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Artists create various themed paintings featuring colorful hues and auspicious meanings. Residents buy these paintings to decorate their homes and present their wishes for the new year. This poster portrays a child helping his grandpa to catch a fish. The scene conveys wishes for a good harvest and wealth.
