The Symbol of the 100 Boys or Children At Play
The “Children at play” motif is a metaphor which alludes to continuing the family line, marital blessings and lots of kids. It also implies fun, happiness, carefree and innocence and is seen on porcelain, folk arts, in paintings and embroideries quite a lot, though not exclusively. “Children at play” never depicts girls – this is an exclusively male only club. There are many variations on this auspicious theme from region to region and period to period.
