The blue bird has long been a symbol of happiness for some Germanic peoples. "Chasing the blue bird" means looking for happiness. There are no truly bluebirds in Europe and to catch this bird is at least impossible.
"The blue bird" has become a symbol of unachievable happiness, an unrealizable although beautiful dream. And "hunting for a blue bird" means looking for the nonexistent, wasting time and effort.
The painting will be shipped out from Shanghai, China.
