Summary
  • Tu'er ye is a clay statue that was given to children during the mid-autumn festival in Beijing and Tianjin, China until approximately the 1950s. Tu'er ye is also the name of a rabbit god who accompanies a moon goddess during the festival, as well as the name for the child's toy, which depicts a rabbit in an outfit traditionally worn by a Chinese general, with a solemn expression on its face. This collection includes an academic paper written by Meng Yu about the tradition; biographical information about the Beijing artist Shuang Qi-xiang who makes Tu'er ye and other clay toys; and 52 color photographs of Shuang Qi-xiang's art work and of the artist, who has revived the art of making of these traditional clay statues.
