The God of Longevity, also called the Old Man Star, is one of the three gods in Chinese fable, namely, the God of Luck, God of High Rank and God of Longevity. In the Chinese folks' view, they are common auspicious figures, among which the image of the God of Longevity is a whitebeard with a projecting forehead, holding a staff on one hand and a Lucid Ganoderma on the other. Articles symbolizing longevity such as deer, crane and peach are usually painted on the picture of the God of Longevity. ( Edited by Schligge)
