skylee Posted April 14, 2013 at 05:08 AM Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 at 05:08 AM The main body is part of a poem by Mao Zedong - 俏也不爭春,只把春來報。The beautiful flowers that stand out in the cold are there to report the arrival of the spring, not to compete with the beauty of the spring. The verse tends to be interpreted politically by some people, which is not surprising given the author. For example, it is used as the title of this exhibition about unsung heroes. http://www.lcsd.gov.hk/CE/Museum/sysm/en/permanent_com_06092012.php The rest is about who the scroll was for and who wrote it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
