Lyme, Ch'ung Kuo | |
old man Shou lao | |
The old man of the southern star, Shou-lao, sits here on a small deer. | |
The old man Shou-lao's frame looks thin and feeble. He is possibly nearing the second century of his life, however he radiates a feeling of longevity and well-being. His face is ghostly pale and he has a long white beard hanging from his chin. Both of these features accentuate his blackened eyes and the half-rings underneath them. Shou-lao wears a gold tunic and a pair of faded blue pants covered in a wavy bluish-green pattern. On his feet he has a pair of soft leather sandals and he holds a coral sceptre in his right hand. The old man Shou-lao is in an excellent condition. | |
