God of the Home Zaowang with his wife, nianhua New Year's picture, gods, Chinese art, Chinese culture, early 20th century, Yangliuqing, graphic print, height 39.2 cm, width 24.4 cm, A vertical image of a colorful painted print on pale beige paper showing a framed scene with two central seated figures with pale faces, dark hair, and ornamental headdresses, each within circular halos; they wear richly patterned robes in red, orange, green, and gold, and hold ceremonial objects on a decorated table in front of them. Surrounding the central pair are a group of attendants and smaller figures in similar colorful attire positioned on both sides and behind, all rendered with stylized facial features and flushed pale pink cheeks. The composition is enclosed by an ornate border and canopy featuring swirling floral and geometric motifs in bright colors including red, green, orange, yellow, purple, and teal, with gold-toned accents and dark outlines. The upper area above the seated figures contains a rectangular panel filled with dense dark marks that form a grid, while the lower area beneath the table includes additional decorative elements such as stylized flame-like shapes, animal-like forms, and layered patterned bands in the same vivid palette. The paper shows slight creases and a neutral gray background is visible around the print.
