This is a Gansu children's drawing meant to symbolize polytheistic Gansu beliefs: the panda, blessed by the Gods of the sun, sky, and stream(represented by blues and yellow) protects from the evil mountain demons that can possess men and cause them to do evil deeds. The panda has been believed to be a divine protector, or even our Gods incarnate. Without the panda, our tribe would be helpless to the evil demons of the mountains. These beliefs are introduced to young children, as evidenced by this crude drawing. Much Gansu art features the symbolically yellow and blue colored panda dominating a black and evil mountain backdrop.
