#FishyFriday: Gong Gu, Nine Carp, #Qing dynasty, 19th c.?, set of 4 hanging scrolls, ink & color on paper
>IIt refers to “nine similitudes" - nine comparisons that imply eternity or longevity ("like mountains," "like streams," and so on). Because the term for "similitude" sounds like the term for "fish,” paintings of nine fish became conventional expressions of wishes for longevity and constancy.<
-from the Met’s “Noble Virtues: Nature as Symbol in #Chinese Art” exhibition

For #FishyFriday: two #AncientGreek #fishplates on display at @artinstitutechi. Before posting their label info, can you tell by the designs which one was probably made in Attica and which by Greek settlers in southern Italy? 🤔 (there is a hint in the ALTs 👀)
