PROVENANCE
Acquired by Bayer from Bernheimer by Carl Duisberg prior to 1930 - Partial age damage and surface change due to many years of presentation in the park
In Japanese culture,the crane is a powerful symbol of longevity,good fortune,and fidelity. Revered for its grace and beauty,it is often associated with the idea of eternal life,as cranes are believed to live for a thou-sand years. In Japanese folklore,the crane is also linked to the concept of selflessness,as seen in the tale of the “crane wife” (tsuru no ongaeshi). where a crane transforms into a woman to marry a kind man. Displaying cranes in art and design is thought to bring blessings,harmony,and prosperity
