Description:
This is an embroidery recreation of a set of four -- Plum Blossom, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum. These are famous flowers and they were endowed with lofty symbolizing by poets, scholars and painters from history, so they were part of Chinese culture.
Chrysanthemums are opened in the late autumn when all other flowers are falling. They are beautiful but not fragile; they are coquettish but unyielding; they are fragrant and do not wither in the coldness. Chrysanthemum paintings manifested the lofty symbolizing of the courage facing difficulties. This is a well stitched embroidery piece and the whole image looks serene, simple and beautiful. All the Chinese characters and stamps were embroidered too.
