Suzhou embroidery introduction:

Suzhou embroidery is a traditional art in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, and it is one of the national intangible cultural heritages. Suzhou Embroidery (Nantong Imitation Embroidery) originated in Wuxian County, Suzhou. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu had already used embroidery to make clothes. By the Ming Dynasty, Jiangnan had become the center of silk weaving handicraft industry.

Wu Pai, represented by Tang Yin and Shen Zhou, appeared in painting art, which promoted the development of embroidery. Embroidery artists combine painting to reproduce, and the masterpieces embroidered are vivid and lifelike, which is known as "painting with needles" and "outstanding".

The main artistic feature of Su embroidery works is that mountains and rivers can be divided into far and near interests; The pavilion has a deep body; Characters can have vivid feelings; Flowers and birds can show their elegance and intimacy. On June 4th, 2008, Suzhou Embroidery (Nantong Imitation Embroidery) was approved to be included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage expansion projects in the State Council, People's Republic of China (PRC), with the heritage number ⅶ- 18.

Cultural characteristics:

Suzhou embroidery (Nantong simulation embroidery) creatively uses spinning needles and virtual needles to express the texture of objects, and uses colorful silk threads to harmonize colors, so that the finished products are naturally soft and colorful, showing the merits of realism. "Simulation embroidery" often takes portraits and landscapes in western oil paintings as the theme, among which figure embroidery is the best, and its stitches are varied, which vividly shows the five senses of the people in the painting.

Production process:

1. Needle: Simulated embroidery has changed the needle method of laying straight sleeves in traditional embroidery, and created a rotating needle, that is, rotating the needle according to the structure of the object image, which can better reflect the texture of the object image.

2. Color: Shen Shou devoted himself to research, and set up a dyeing color scale table in Xuee Embroidery Manual, which has been in use ever since. Color matching uses embroidery to match colors, such as ink painting. Nantong simulation embroidery is mainly based on draft, and the color is matched with draft tone; If it is mainly real flowers, we should match the colors according to the colors of real flowers.

3. The application of the relationship between light and line color matching: The pursuit of light effect in simulated embroidery mainly lies in how to use line color matching. After Shen Shou's painstaking research, several kinds of color lines were combined into a needle, embellished with tonal embroidery, which enriched the expressive force of colors and reflected the changes in the relationship between light and shade caused by different objects in western oil painting, lead painting and photography.
