New Year Prints (and chubby babies) Part 2
What has always been, and has remained, popular are New Year prints devoted to children. The chubby baby boys (pang wawa), particularly those holding carps, which denotes male offspring and abundance, continue to encapsulate traditional ideals of wealth, happiness, longevity, and others. Although babies are still depicted with protective charms around their necks, clutching peaches of immortality, surrounded by magpies and mandarin ducks, they increasingly are portrayed as girls.
