EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the deity Kiang-tse-ya, also known as the God of Fortune or the Kitchen God, is depicted holding a collection of auspicious symbols from Chinese mythology and philosophy. The image, taken in China in 1912, showcases the rich cultural heritage and religious practices that have shaped Chinese history. Kiang-tse-ya is traditionally believed to be the protector of the home and the guardian of good fortune. He is often depicted as a plump, jovial figure with a rosy complexion and a broad smile, symbolizing happiness and prosperity. In this photograph, he is shown holding two of the most iconic symbols of Chinese culture - the Yin and Yang. These symbols represent the balance and harmony of opposing forces in the universe, symbolizing the interconnectedness of all things. The deity is also holding a group of symbols from the I Ching, or the Book of Changes, an ancient Chinese text that is considered a fundamental work of Chinese philosophy. The I Ching is believed to provide guidance on various aspects of life, including personal and professional matters, and is often consulted during important decisions. The symbols in the photograph include the hexagrams representing the eight trigrams, which are believed to represent various aspects of the natural world and the human condition. The photograph offers a glimpse into the religious and cultural practices of China during the early 20th century, providing a window into the rich history and traditions that continue to influence Chinese society today. The image of Kiang-tse-ya holding the auspicious symbols serves as a reminder of the enduring power of Chinese mythology and philosophy, and the importance of balance, harmony, and good fortune in Chinese culture.
