Twelve gold hairpin embroidery figures?
Is this the real name of this embroidery drawing?
Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue were both a little surprised. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Originally, they all thought that Chu Yingluo should know nothing about embroidery, but according to the current situation, Chu Yingluo not only knows something about embroidery, but also seems to know the true origin of this embroidery picture?
"Dad, what is the embroidery picture of the twelve golden hairpins?" Chu Ning squeezed beside his father and asked, "This is the one in front of us?"
Meng Dongyue also looked like a curious baby.
"No wonder you don't know. Chu Yingluo said with emotion, "This embroidery picture is a legendary thing, and many people think that there is no such picture in the world." Coupled with the fact that it has not been born for a long time, gradually, fewer people know about its existence. ”
He gently stroked every needle and thread on the embroidery drawing, as if there was some fragile glass under his hand, and even his breathing was much lighter than usual.
Is this embroidery picture really so important?
Chu Ning felt a little embarrassed by her clumsiness.
"Master, don't sell it. The anxious Meng Dongyue urged, "Tell us what this is!"
This stupid apprentice can't hold his breath at all!
Chu Ying glared at Meng Dongyue slightly.
Meng Dongyue smiled, not afraid at all.
Although Chu Yingluo wanted to clean up his little apprentice, considering the presence of his obedient daughter, he still wouldn't do such a rude thing.
"This embroidery picture is called the Twelve Golden Hairpin Embroidery Picture. Among them, the twelve golden hairpins, in fact, you should be very familiar with them. Chu Ying nodded slightly.
Twelve golden hairpins?
Chu Ning had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and blurted out: "Is it the Twelve Golden Hairpins of Jinling in "Dream of Red Mansions"?!"
Chu Ying smiled slightly.
Meng Dongyue suddenly realized.
The Twelve Hairpins of Jinling are the characters in "Dream of Red Mansions", which have the main book, the second book, and the second book.
In each volume, there are exactly twelve people.
And the twelve golden hairpins refer to the twelve in the canon.
"Dream of Red Mansions" is the first of the four famous works in ancient China, and the reputation of the twelve hairpins of Jinling is also known to the world with the spread of "Dream of Red Mansions".
Nowadays, when it comes to the twelve beauties, many people will think of the twelve hairpins of Jinling.
Chu Ning had thought of it before, but this embroidery picture was too exquisite, and it was hard for her to imagine that there would be someone after the Qing Dynasty who could draw such a pattern with such exquisite skills.
"Looks like you've all remembered. Chu Yingluo sighed and said, "This embroidery picture is not ordinary embroidery. It's a rare piece of Beijing embroidery!"
Beijing embroidery is a general term for embroidery products centered on the capital. It originated in the Sui and Tang dynasties, but it was carried forward in the Ming and Qing dynasties and was mostly used in the court.
Therefore, Beijing embroidery also has another name, palace embroidery.
Beijing embroidery materials are exquisite, elegant style, gorgeous and luxurious, is one of the "Yanjing Eight Uniques", and has also been ranked among the four ancient embroidery.
Yanjing Eight Uniques refers to cloisonne, jade carving, ivory carving, carved lacquer, gold lacquer inlay, filigree inlay, palace carpet, Beijing embroidery these eight crafts, they are the most prosperous crafts in the Qing Dynasty, its name is prosperous, and it has not faded so far.
The reputation of the four ancient embroideries is even greater, and it has been nearly lost in our country. Any piece of embroidery from the four ancient embroideries is almost always something that can become an heirloom and is priceless.
"But Jing embroidery, most of them are for the use of the court. Even if there is Beijing embroidery among the people, the style is unified with the court, and there are requirements in terms of patterns and ornamentation. Chu Ning said suspiciously, "The figure picture of Beijing embroidery, or this kind of elegant beauty, has it almost never happened?"
"Little junior sister, you still know how to embroider Beijing?!" Meng Dongyue looked at Chu Ning with wide eyes.
He could hardly understand a word about embroidery. He originally thought that the little junior sister should be the same as himself, and he could be regarded as having a companion.
But I didn't expect that the little junior sister would be able to catch up with the master's words?!
It's incredible!
Compared with the little junior sister who is a scholar in the antique world, he is actually a recognized scumbag, right?
"Of course I know the basics. Chu Ning blinked and said, "But what I know is what is recorded in books, and it is difficult for me to distinguish between several different embroideries if I really want to put a few different embroideries in front of me." Senior Brother Meng, don't you know such a simple thing? You've been apprenticed for so long, what have you learned from my father?"
Chu Yingluo's sharp gaze immediately focused on Meng Dongyue.
Meng Dongyue glanced at Chu Ning resentfully, and while complaining in his heart, he hurriedly explained: "The master has taught me too many things, and my apprenticeship time is still short, so I haven't learned this aspect yet." ”
Chu Ning snickered in her heart, but she saved some face for Meng Dongyue and didn't ask any questions.
Meng Dongyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Yingluo still felt that this apprentice had embarrassed himself.
It seems that in the future, it is time to supervise Xiao Meng's learning progress.
If Meng Dongyue knew that he was talking too much, but in the end he was getting a doubly hard antique learning course, I was afraid that he would be eager to slap himself in the mouth.
"It is true that most of the Beijing embroidery is the style of court embroidery, but there are exceptions to everything, and Beijing embroidery is naturally one of them. Chu Yingluo explained to her daughter, "When Dream of Red Mansions was first born in the Qing Dynasty, it was listed as a banned book. There are countless people who have caused trouble because of this book. However, the book "Dream of Red Mansions", aside from those obscure political directions, is also a very good romance novel in its own right. So at that time, there were many people who liked this book, including the big names in the court. ”
If there are big people in the court who like it, there will naturally be people who like it.
This embroidered picture of the twelve golden hairpins was born in this way.
It's just that because of the sensitivity of the book "Dream of Red Mansions", even if some people in the royal family like this embroidered picture of the twelve golden hairpins very much, they will not get it on the bright side and lose their own face.
Over time, this embroidered picture of the twelve golden hairpins has become a legendary thing, and many people only hear its sound and do not see it.
Therefore, many people think that this embroidery picture does not exist at all, but it is just a false rumor.
"When your grandfather was still alive, he always remembered this legendary picture of the twelve golden hairpins embroidered in Beijing, and it was at that time that I knew that there was such a picture. Chu Yingluo sighed, "If his old man knew, this picture would eventually be taken in your hands, and he might not be happy." ”
It turns out that my grandfather is still a big fan of this Beijing embroidery picture?
Chu Ning was full of emotion in her heart for a while.
"Master, this picture looks very beautiful. However, are you really sure that it is Beijing embroidery?" Seeing that the emotions of the master and the little junior sister were a little wrong, Meng Dongyue hurriedly diverted the topic and said, "There are so many famous embroidery techniques in my country, can't this be the embroidery of other genres?"
