With each piece containing thousands of tiny threads, a composition requires a high level of skill to create. This set of four silk embroideries depicts "The Four Gentlemen", or the representation of the four seasons through four noble flowers. The cherry blossom for winter, the orchid for spring, the bamboo for summer, and the chrysanthemum for autumn. The Four Gentlemen belongs to the genre of bird-and-flower painting and is an important artistic movement in Chinese art since the Song Dynasty. The four panels, when displayed together, illustrate the unfolding and inherently cyclical nature of the seasons. A short Chinese poem delightfully accompanies each panel, completing the overall composition. Each embroidery is mounted in a shadow-box style, where the embroidery rests away from the backing, creating a fascinating impression of light and shadow. The reflective nature of the silk thread also allows the vibrant color tones to glimmer in the light, creating a complex, life-like layering effect of three-dimensional forms. A textured, bevel-cut paper mat beautifully frames the embroidery, providing a museum-like finish. Mounting hooks are included and ready to hang. Condition: New.
