Re: Need translation of red stamp on paiting |
Posted By: Bill H Posted Date: Jul 19, 2013 (12:54 AM) |
Message The seal reads down in Mandarin pinyin as "Wancui" (晚翠), an old Chinese term for plants that remain green until late in the year. I'd venture to guess it might be a naturally applicable idiom to describe an elderly person who retains a youthful appearance or outlook, but my Mathews dictionary doesn't mention anything to verify that assumption. What does your picture say about the world? Bill H. Post a Response |
