另外，虾图，主要有吉祥平安、长久富贵、顽强拼搏和淡泊名利等四大寓意。一是吉祥平安，北方人把虾比喻为龙的化身，龙是中华民族的图腾，中国人是龙的传人，对龙有着非常深的感情和崇拜。为此，古人认为虾与龙一样，代表着吉祥平安的寓意；二是长久富贵，虾的体型非常独特，从头至尾，看上去是一节一节的，如竹节一般，虽然是弯的，却行动顺畅自如，辗转腾挪异常灵活。虾的独特体型，象征着人的一生必定会顺畅圆满、节节高升、步步亨通。三是顽强拼搏，虾身上的铠甲透明坚硬，站立时的姿态昂头挺背、外型流畅，两个尖长呈锯齿状的额剑高举，不停转动的一对复眼，给人一种时刻保持战斗的印象。虾在未受到打扰时，都是慢悠悠地游动，犹如闲庭信步一般。但凡遇到对手攻击，它就会勇敢地展开双臂搏斗，即使被断双臂也会继续斗争。一旦，它感觉有生命危险，也会非常聪明地迅速逃走。虾的这种状态，寓意做人要坦诚透明，时刻保持顽强拼搏、昂扬奋进和以大局为重的精神与思想；四是淡泊名利，虾是一种性格非常温顺的动物，从来不会主动攻击它物，也不会对同族造成侵袭、伤害。虾的群居生活，非常和谐，互动性强。它的身躯虽小，但玉洁透明。所以无论从任何一方面讲，都是难得一见的一幅珍品画作。
In addition, shrimp map, mainly auspicious peace, long-term wealth, tenacious struggle and indifferent to fame and wealth and other four major implications. First, good luck and peace, the northern people compare shrimp to the incarnation of the dragon, the dragon is the totem of the Chinese nation, the Chinese people are the descendants of the dragon, the dragon has a very deep feelings and worship. For this reason, the ancients believed that shrimp, like dragon, represented the meaning of auspiciousness and peace; The second is long-term wealth, shrimp body shape is very unique, from beginning to end, it looks like a section, such as bamboo, although it is curved, but the action is smooth, tossing and turning is extremely flexible. The unique body shape of shrimp symbolizes that a person's life will surely be smooth and complete, promoted and prosperous step by step. The third is the tenacious struggle, the shrimp body armor transparent hard, standing posture, the head is upright, the appearance is smooth, the two pointed long serrated forehead sword is held high, and the pair of complex eyes keep rotating, giving a person the impression of keeping fighting at all times. When the shrimp are not disturbed, they swim slowly, as if walking in a leisurely court. Whenever an opponent attacks, it will bravely open its arms to fight, even if it is broken arms will continue to fight. Once it senses that its life is in danger, it is also very clever and quickly runs away. This state of shrimp means that people should be honest and transparent, and always maintain the spirit and thought of tenacious struggle, high spirit and the overall situation; The fourth is indifferent to fame and wealth, shrimp is a very docile character of the animal, never actively attack it, will not cause invasion, harm to the same family. Shrimp live in groups, which are very harmonious and interactive. Its body is small, but pure and transparent. So in every way, it is a rare rare rare painting
