Chapter 367: Apprenticeship 7
Kwon Seung-nan blurted out in surprise: "Could it be that you are best at embroidery?" ”
Embroidery is one of the noble arts.
"Not bad!"
Zhan said proudly: "I am a descendant of the Zhan family, a family of Jiangnan embroidery, and what we are good at is Gu embroidery!" Gu Xiu: Have you heard of it? Originated from the Gu family in Songjiang in the Ming Dynasty. ”
"Know! Thunder! "Songjiang is now the big Shanghai.
Gu embroidery is a way of painting, a special way.
Gu embroidery has the reputation of painting and embroidery.
The most unique place is that Gu embroidery is based on the famous paintings of the Song and Yuan dynasties, mainly famous paintings such as landscapes, figures, flowers and birds, and the combination of embroidery and painting techniques, using embroidery needles instead of brushes, and embroidery threads instead of ink paints, outlining and blending, and depicting a fine picture on the embroidery surface.
Gu Xiu's pictures, whether they are landscapes or characters, flowers and birds, are all lifelike.
Gu embroidery originated in the Ming Dynasty, spread in the Qing Dynasty, has a huge influence, the four famous embroideries of the Qing Dynasty, all benefit from this.
Every woman who is proficient in Gu embroidery has a very high artistic quality.
If you don't know calligraphy and painting, it is difficult to embroider the style and charm of famous paintings.
The unity of painting and embroidery is the essence of Gu embroidery.
Each of the Gu embroidery works that have been handed down is a cultural relic, the most famous of which is Han Ximeng's work, which is of immeasurable value.
However, in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, Gu embroidery declined and was almost lost, and it was not until after liberation that it was restored in recent years.
However, even if it is restored and developed, it is far from comparable to the achievements of its predecessors.
Zhan Shi looked at Quan Shengnan with a smile, looked up and down, and nodded: "Not bad, not bad, you are right!" ”
Quan Shengnan was stunned, why did she look at herself like a piece of fat?
Soon, her hunch came true.
"That's you!" Jen clapped his hands and laughed.
"Ahh
Quan Shengnan reacted immediately, pointed to his nose and said, "You want to accept me as an apprentice and learn embroidery?" ”
She has learned calligraphy and painting, and she has also dabbled in piano and chess in her previous life, but embroidery, she really has never touched it!
Zhan Shi smiled: "Except for you, where can I go to accept apprentices?" No one else can see me. ”
Quan Shengnan frowned and said, "Can I learn?" ”
"Why not? You're the best fit. Zhan said unquestioningly.
Then, she pointed to what Quan Shengnan had recently learned and said: "Your calligraphy is very good, it looks like you have decades of skills, not at all like you said that you have only practiced for a few years, and the Danqing you just learned recently is also very aura." With these skills as a foundation, you are very suitable for learning Gu embroidery. Calligraphy, painting and embroidery are one, complementing each other, only beneficial to you, and harmless. ”
She was afraid that Quan Shengnan would refuse, so she begged: "You won't watch me break the inheritance, right?" I promised my mother to carry forward the ancestral embroidery, and now that I'm dead, I can't accept anyone else as an apprentice except you! ”
"That sister of yours, hasn't she studied?" Kwon Seung-nan asked curiously.
Zhan's face suddenly changed, and he looked sarcastic.
"Learned. However, she couldn't settle down and didn't want to learn, even if she was forced to learn, she only learned a little fur, and she didn't learn a lot of embroidery stitches. ”
Quan Shengnan loves these ancient cultures, and when he has this opportunity, he naturally agrees.
However, before studying, she first told Yuan Zhiyuan and Lin Xiaoxue.
In the future, if they want to buy embroidery frames, embroidery fabrics, embroidery threads, etc., they will find that they know that they can see hell anyway, and there is no need to hide them.
The Jinling case involved countless officials and businessmen, and the city government vacated many positions.
Yuan Zhiyuan has been very busy recently, and he doesn't go home until midnight every day.
When I got home that day, I saw that my wife and daughter were waiting for me, and I didn't feel a little curious.
