"Elegant" The term "翩翩" embodies the idea of a light and joyful appearance, often associated with graceful flight. In the poem "Four Horses" from the "Xiao Ya" section of the Book of Songs, it is written, "翩翩者鵻，載飛載下，集於苞栩," which can be translated as "Graceful is the wild goose, soaring and descending, gathering at the mire tree." In the "Essay on the Wagtail" by Zhang Hua in the Wenxuan, there is a line that says, "翩翩然，有以自樂也," which can be translated as "Graceful and joyful, finding delight in oneself." When the artist created this piece, they approached it with a joyful heart, crafting a composition that moves dynamically upwards, embodying a proactive and optimistic trend, and maintaining a light, lively, and bright rhythm.
