On this day on the 5th February 2023 on the fifteenth day of Chinese lunar new year festival is the lantern festival or known as Chinese Valentine’s Day…. in which this painting is inspired by the Hangzhou West lake storytelling of the legend of the white snake…..

The early days, young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love. Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns were symbolic of good luck and hope…… Lantern Festival is one of the events they can go out and join in the celebration. And that’s when other young guys can get to meet the ladies. Therefore, the Lantern Festival is sometimes referred to as Chinese Valentine’s Day. There will also be big displays of lanterns in some major parks or open space.

Love inscribed in poems

The other evidence of the Lantern Festival being Chinese Valentine’s Day is recorded in Chinese literature. In the thousands of ancient poems passed on from the Tang and Song dynasties, many depicted ardent love for their partners.

Not only was love engraved in ancient poems, but also sceneries and the boisterous carnivals of the Lantern Festival, when the nights were as bright as the daytime with hundreds of lanterns burning.

The festive atmosphere, the performances, and the moonlight jointly created the best time for a date.

The history of the festival could be traced back to the Han Dynasty (202 B.C.-220 A.D.), and the celebrations were gradually enriched, expanded and settled in succeeding dynasties. But from the very beginning, lanterns have been an indispensable part of the day.

Sun halos a halo is a ring or light that forms around the sun or moon as the sun or moon light refracts off ice crystals present in a thin veil of cirrus clouds. The halo is usually seen as a bright, white ring although sometimes it can have color.

Circumzenithal arcs are A circumzenithal arc (sometimes known as Bravais’ arc) is a type of Halo. They are formed when sunlight refracts through horizontal ice crystals at such an angle that the light enters the crystal through its flat top face and exits through a side prism face causing the distinctive upside-down rainbow effect. Circumzenithal arcs are relatively common, though a special set of circumstances are required. The sun needs to be more than five, and less than 32 degrees above the horizon, in order that the sunlight can refract in the correct way through the ice crystals to form the smiling, rather than frowning, halo
