Chinese contemporary artist Xue Song utilized burnt presswork scraps to create a fire back in 90s. Xue Song has become the second after Chen You Jian, to work a crossover with Yohji Yamamoto and Yayoi Kusama for Salvatore Ferragamo in the year of tiger 2010 to influx a new element in a classical world brand. 
The tiger in this artwork is surrounded by peony blossoms that implies prosperity and fortune; it also echoes with Tang Bo Hu’s “Withering peony poem”. Xue Song intentionally created this charming character and given him the leadership characteristic of a tiger.
