In the Song Dynasty, there was a poem praising the lotus: it emerges from the mud but remains unstained, and washes the ripples cleanly without being evil;it means that in a troubled world, it alone maintains purity and innocence. The carp also means carp jumping over the dragon gate, which symbolizes wealth,excess and abundance. The lotus carp means beauty. The combination of the two is simply a gift from nature. The artist’s ingenuity is truly beautiful.The beauty of the meaning of lotus and carp lies in seeing the dark green lotus leaves stretching, the dewdrops rolling, the lotus being noble and graceful,elegant and moving, and the fish swimming, I feel comfortable and peaceful in my heart, which can be said to be very enjoyable. This may be the charm of traditional Chinese flower and bird painting. , not only cultivates sentiment,but also purifies the soul.
