EDITORS COMMENTS
Si Wang-Mou, also known as the Golden Mother of the Tortoise, is a revered deity in Chinese religion and mythology. This exquisite photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the essence of this ancient and powerful figure. Si Wang-Mou is believed to be the embodiment of the creative force of the universe. She is often depicted as a golden woman, sitting atop a giant tortoise, with her hands in a gesturing position, symbolizing creation and nurturing. The tortoise, a symbol of longevity and wisdom, is said to carry the weight of the world on its back, reflecting the heavy responsibility of Si Wang-Mou as the mother of all. The origins of Si Wang-Mou can be traced back to ancient China, around the 1915 timeframe, when the deity was widely worshipped in various regions. The belief in Si Wang-Mou transcended ethnic and cultural boundaries, and she became an integral part of Chinese folklore and history. This photograph print, with its rich golden hues and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the mystical world of Chinese deities. The image of Si Wang-Mou, with her serene expression and regal bearing, evokes a sense of awe and reverence. The tortoise beneath her, with its wise and knowing eyes, adds to the enchanting allure of this ancient and revered figure. Si Wang-Mou continues to be an inspiration to many, representing the creative force and nurturing power of the universe. This photograph print is a beautiful reminder of the rich cultural heritage and spiritual traditions that have shaped Chinese history and continue to influence our world today.
