    Breughelian painting of 83 Cantonese idioms

    Cool picture making the rounds on the internet!

    Here's a link to the art, with commentary from Victor Mair, Professor of Chinese at UPenn.

    And if you're curious to find out about all 83 idioms, this website has bilingual explanations and audio clips. Enjoy!

    Thanks for that. The picture and the wordpress link are both great. Make sure that you enlarge the picture (depends on your browser how you do it) so that you can see the detail.
