Tsai Shen Yeh is a Chinese God of wealth (often also called Lu Shing or The Star God of Wealth). Images of the God can be seen in many Chinese and oriental houses and buildings, most often near their entrances (helping them attract wealth and prosperity to those places as well as acting as a protection to their environments and the income which comes to them). Pictured here distributing money, a Chinese custom at New Year. Date: circa 1920s
