| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed scene in the Chinese painting tradition showing a large, rotund cat seated prominently in the left foreground, rendered in high relief with fine fur detailing. Rocky garden formations and blossoming branches fill the mid-ground and upper field, with several butterflies in flight among the floral elements. The inscription 寿居耄耋 (longevity reaching an advanced age) appears in the upper right field in Chinese characters, a phrase traditionally associated with cats and butterflies symbolizing longevity. The denomination 30元 is inscribed in the lower right field. The composition references classical Chinese literati painting conventions celebrating auspicious themes of long life. |
