This print showcases a remarkable Square-Sided Jar with Dragons, Phoenixes, Cranes, and Auspicious Symbols from the Ming dynasty. Crafted during the Wanli reign (1573-1620), this 16th to 17th-century ceramic artifact exemplifies the exquisite artistry of Chinese craftsmanship. The jar's vibrant colors and intricate design depict mythical creatures such as dragons, phoenixes, and cranes - symbolizing power, rebirth, and longevity respectively. These auspicious symbols were believed to bring good fortune and luck to its owner. Displayed in the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago's Asian collection gallery, this antique piece is a testament to China's rich cultural heritage.
