History of embroidery

Embroidery originated very early.

embroidery linen embroidery text, seen in the book. At the time of Yu and Shun, there was embroidery.

The Eastern Zhou has set up an official specializing in its duties, to the Han has the court embroidery. Wu Sun Quan of the Three Kingdoms to make Mrs. Zhao embroidered mountains and rivers, terrain, military formations, Tang Yongzhen yuan (805 AD) Lu Meiniang to the Dharma Sutra seven volumes, embroidered on a foot of silk, because the embroidery is famous for the former records.

Since the Han Dynasty, embroidery has gradually become the best art in the boudoir, and famous embroiderers have taken their place in the history of art. In primitive society, people use tattoos, tattoo surface to decorate.

Since the linen, woolen textiles, silk fabrics, with clothes, people began to embroider totems and other types of patterns on the clothes. According to "Shangshu", as early as four thousand years ago, the chapter clothing system provides "clothing painting and clothing embroidery".

In the pre-Qin literature, there are vermilion dyed silk threads, embroidered on the white clothes with vermilion pattern records and the so-called "plain Zhu embroidered", "gun clothes embroidered clothes", "黻衣绣裳 "say. At that time, both embroidery and painting, but also embroidered pattern after filling color practice.

The embroidery of the Warring States period has been very beautiful, this period of embroidery with the braid embroidery needlework, also known as braid embroidery, lock embroidery. Jiangling, Hubei, Mashan Silicon Factory one of the Warring States Chu Tomb excavations of embroidery, phoenix, dragon embroidery, flying phoenix embroidery, dragon, phoenix and tiger embroidery Zen clothes, etc., are used to braid strands of embroidery, and do not add paintings to fill in the color, which marks this time of the embroidery process has been developed to a mature stage.

These embroideries in the structure of the pattern is very strict, there is a clear geometric layout, a large number of flowers and plants, birds, dragons, beasts, and romantically combined with animal and plant images, the technique of realistic and abstract and use, interspersed with stacked, embroidery image of long and clear, more white, reflecting the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period of the important characteristics of the embroidery pattern. At present, the earliest surviving embroidery, for the Warring States period in Hunan Changsha Chu tomb unearthed two pieces of embroidery.

Look at its needlework, completely with braided stock needlework (i.e., lock embroidery) embroidered into the silk and Luo, neat stitches, elegant colors, smooth lines, the pattern of dragons and phoenixes, tigers and beasts, showing a natural and lively, lively and powerful, fully demonstrating the achievements of the art of embroidery in Chu. Han Dynasty embroidery, in Dunhuang Thousand Buddha Cave, Hebei Wulu charging tomb, northern Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Turpan Astana North Tomb have been unearthed, especially in 1972 in Changsha Mawangdui unearthed a large number of varieties and complete embroidery, and more help to understand the style of Han Dynasty embroidery.

From these embroideries, the Han embroidery motifs theme, most of the wave-like cloud pattern, soaring phoenix birds, Mercedes the beasts, as well as the Han mirror decorations common banded patterns, geometric patterns and so on. Embroidery new base material, the popular weaving, such as weaving into the "prolonged life and greatly suitable for children and grandchildren", "long and bright" and other auspicious text of silk brocade silk.

The technique is based on lock embroidery, the pattern will be filled, the composition is tight, neat stitching, lines are extremely smooth. Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Northern Dynasties of silk fabrics, unearthed in Gansu Dunhuang and Xinjiang Hetian, Bachu, Turpan and other places, seen fragments of embroidery, regardless of the pattern or white, the whole are embroidered with a fine lock embroidery all embroidered, become a full of embroidery features.

Heirloom and unearthed embroidery of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty religious art has a close relationship, which has a lot of Tang embroidery Buddha, such as the British Museum has the Oriental Dunhuang Thousand Buddha Cave found in the embroidered account of the Lingwu Mountain Shakyamuni Sutra map, Nara National Museum of Japan collection of Shakyamuni Sutra map, and so on, are with when on the Fodun Rongsheng's beliefs, there is a direct correlation. At this time, the embroidery technique is still inherited from the Han Dynasty lock embroidery, but the needle has begun to change the use of flat embroidery-based, and the use of a variety of different needles, a variety of color thread.

The embroidery base material is not limited to brocade and flat silk. Embroidery patterns used, and painting has a close relationship with the Tang Dynasty painting in addition to the Buddha figures, landscapes, flowers and birds also gradually flourished.

Therefore, Buddhist figures, landscapes and pavilions, flowers and birds, also became embroidery patterns, lively composition, bright colors. Using the embroidery method of micro-fine flat embroidery, with a variety of color threads and the use of needlework, instead of paint strokes of the painting to form a special art, is also a unique style of Tang embroidery.

As for the use of gold and silver thread coiled around the contours of the pattern, to enhance the three-dimensional sense of the object, can be regarded as an innovation of the Tang Dynasty embroidery. Before the Tang embroidery, mostly for practical and decorative purposes, embroidery content and life needs and customs.

Song Dynasty embroidery, in addition to practical products, especially committed to embroidery painting. Since the Jin and Tang dynasties, the literati love calligraphy and painting, painting and calligraphy is the highest artistic expression, to the Song more and silk embroidery, painting and calligraphy style directly affects the style of embroidery.

The embroidery painting and painting should be inseparable from the relationship between the ages until the Qing Dynasty. The development of embroidery in the Song Dynasty, because the court rewarded the promotion of the reason.

According to the "History of the Song Dynasty - Officials", the Palace Embroidery House in charge of compiling embroidery. Huizong years and set up embroidery painting specialization, so that the embroidery painting classification for landscapes, pavilions, people, flowers and birds, and thus the famous embroiderer one after another, so that the development of painting to the highest level, and from the practical to the art of appreciation, the painting and calligraphy into the embroidery, the formation of a unique ornamental embroidery.

In order to achieve the painting and calligraphy, we need to have a plan before embroidery, and we need to measure the situation when embroidering, so we tend to be more sophisticated. Composition must be simplified, the pattern is very important to take the white, and the Tang Dynasty, regardless of whether there is a pattern of full-ground Shi embroidery is very different, the Ming Dynasty Dong Qichang "Peony clear Xuan secret record" contains: "Song people embroidery, needle and thread fine, with velvet stop one or two silk, with a needle such as a hair thin, for the set of color and color is exquisite color shooting eyes.

Landscapes divided into near and far the interest of the pavilion to be the body of the depth, the characters with a look at the vivid feelings, birds and flowers gobbling extremely nicknamed gobbling attitude. Better than the painting is even better, look at the three interesting all ready, ten fingers of the spring breeze, cover to this.

This paragraph describes the characteristics of Song embroidery. Yuan dynasty embroidery is rare, Taiwan hired the National Palace Museum only one piece of work, viewed by the work, still inherited the Song dynasty legacy.

Yuan people with slightly thicker velvet, drop needle is not as dense as the Song embroidery. Yuan rulers believe in Lamaism, embroidery in addition to general clothing embellishment, more with a strong religious colors, was used to produce Buddha, scrolls, streamers, hats, to *** Potala Palace preserved the Yuan Dynasty "embroidery dense vajra statue" as its representative, with a strong decorative style.
