在中国古代,流传着许多含有特殊含义或吉祥寓意的图案。人们喜欢用这些吉祥图案装饰自己的房屋和物品,以表示对幸福生活的向往,对良辰佳节的庆贺。其中鸡被称为五德之禽,其“不为风雨变,鸡德一何贞。在暗常先觉,临晨即自鸣”的特性更是成为始终如一、任劳任怨的象征。被视为吉祥之物的鸡被人们张贴在门窗之上,刺绣于衣物之中,装饰在房屋用品之上,并写入诗歌,绘入画卷,以表达赞美、祈愿美好之情。 In ancient China, there were many patterns that contained special meanings or auspicious meanings. People like to use these auspicious patterns to decorate their houses and objects in order to show their longing for a happy life and celebrating the good times. Among them, the chicken is called a bird of five virtues, and its character is not a symbol of constant change of mind and hard work. Chickens, which are regarded as auspicious objects, are posted on windows and doors, embroidered in garments, decorated on houses, written in poetry, painted into pictures to express praise and pray for good.
