EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the ancient Chinese goddess Nu Kua Shih, also known as the Mother of the World or the August Mother. Nu Kua is a significant figure in Chinese mythology, believed to be the creator of the first humans and the repairer of the sky and heavens after a great battle. Nu Kua is often portrayed as a half-woman, half-dragon deity, symbolizing the power and strength of both the natural world and the creative force. In this print, Nu Kua is shown with a serene expression, her human form blending seamlessly into the curves and scales of the dragon. Her hands are outstretched, as if in the act of creation, while behind her, the heavens are depicted as a chaotic swirl of colors, symbolizing the turmoil and destruction that preceded her intervention. The origins of Nu Kua's story can be traced back to ancient Chinese mythology and folklore, with various versions of her tale appearing in different texts and traditions. One popular legend tells of a great battle between the forces of chaos and order, during which the heavens were torn apart. Nu Kua, moved by the suffering of the people, used clay to create the first humans and restore order to the world. This beautiful print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich and intriguing history of Chinese mythology and the enduring power of the creative spirit.
