🖼 ONE LINE FROM THIS PAINTING
"What virtue does the fragrant cassia tree liken itself to?"
📝ONGO's Reflection
This Chinese painting by an unknown hand holds, with composure, the cassia tree that gives a deep fragrance in autumn. Its flowers are small and inconspicuous, yet their scent spreads far. The cassia is a tree that makes itself known by its fragrance without showing itself, so it was taken as a symbol of humble virtue. True worth spreads of itself without being shouted aloud. Without straining to be seen, the one who holds fragrance within is, in the end, known far and wide.
