The Big Seal script (more than 3000 years old script)
It has 4 drops, like raining. The ancient Chinese used the pictography for "Rain".
The character for Umbrella is 伞 (Song script or printing script) or 傘 (traditional Chinese).
No old script characters found. The character is very like an umbrella.
So 雨伞 means "rain umbrella". It is very pictography.
I modified it as following,
Put the Rain over the Umbrella, add extra drops, make it more picture alike and dynamic. It is a beautiful poetic picture now.
