[QUOTE="georgeingraham, post: 3659988, member: 6261"]I read that Pu Tai with his sack can mean he collects sadness and woes and puts them in his sack. Another version tells his sack symbolizes wealth and good fortune. What ever is being exchanged between him and the young person, seems special. It appears to be wrapped like a gift with what looks like the end of a fly whisk attached.. Would also like to learn about the young persons clothing, what period they might be from, and what they might tell about him. His clothing seems a little bit official, but I think the straw hat would be in contrast to that, and I can not place his tall heavy duty looking black boots.
