NOTE and check out the many fine details...
1. The facial features if the sage (symbolising wisdom, longevity)
2. The flow of his robes, shoes, sash around his waist.

4. Then we have the crane below - which also symbolises wisdom and longevity - looking up to the sage.
5. The sage is seen holding an open scroll - indicating that he is in the act of teaching, of instructing ie of imparting of wisdom.
