From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record
All the motifs in this painting are auspicious. Pine is a robust evergreen-like plum blossom, it is capable of withstanding the snows of winter. The two subjects are often combined with the crane-a bird symbolic of longevity, thus representing abundant blessings. China, Asia
