EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, a group of joyful children gleefully gather around the God of Happiness during the Chinese New Year celebrations in Chinatown, New York, in the 1930s. The historical image, captured by an unknown photographer, transports us back in time to an era filled with rich cultural traditions and vibrant festivities. The children, dressed in colorful clothing, eagerly reach out to touch the God of Happiness, also known as the God of Fortune or the God of Wealth, with the hope of bringing good luck and prosperity into their lives in the upcoming year 4884 of the Chinese calendar. The God of Happiness is depicted as a jovial, rotund figure, adorned with gold coins and other symbols of wealth, sitting serenely on a lion throne, surrounded by a myriad of colorful lanterns and paper decorations. The atmosphere in Chinatown during the Chinese New Year festival is filled with excitement and anticipation. The air is thick with the sweet scent of traditional Chinese foods, the sound of laughter and chatter, and the vibrant hues of red and gold. The children's laughter echoes through the streets, adding to the joyous cacophony of sounds that define this historical and spiritual occasion. The God of Happiness is an essential deity in Chinese Buddhism and Taoism, believed to bring happiness, good fortune, and prosperity to those who seek his blessings. The tradition of touching or bowing before the deity during the Chinese New Year is a deeply rooted practice that has been passed down through generations, symbolizing the importance of hope, faith, and the desire for a prosperous and joyful new year. This image is a testament to the enduring power of tradition and the strength of the human spirit, as it captures the essence of a time when people came together to celebrate the hope and promise of a new beginning.
