【双语】你好！中国 | 刺绣里的中国式浪漫

刺绣是中国民间传统手工艺之一，在中国至少有二三千年历史。中国刺绣主要有苏绣、湘绣、蜀绣和粤绣四大门类。

Embroidery is one of China's traditional folk crafts with a history of at least two to three thousand years. There are four main categories of Chinese embroidery: Su embroidery, Xiang embroidery, Shu embroidery, and Yue embroidery.

刺绣是中国最古老的、具有代表性的传统手工艺之一，在今天的生活中仍然是普遍存在。正如所有人都所熟知的，刺绣指的是用针穿上不同纤维材质、颜色的丝线，在布料上按照一定图案花纹穿刺，留下的绣迹，这便就是刺绣。刺绣的用途主要包括生活和艺术装饰，如服装、床上用品、台布、舞台、艺术品装饰。

Embroidery is one of China's oldest and representative traditional crafts, still widely present in today's life. As everyone knows, embroidery refers to using a needle to pierce silk threads of different fibers and colors into fabric according to a certain pattern, leaving behind embroidered traces. The uses of embroidery mainly include daily life and artistic decoration, such as clothing, bedding, tablecloths, stages, and art decorations.

四大名绣在题材和风格上也各有千秋。苏绣的山水、虫鱼、人物等作品富有诗情画意；湘绣的题材广泛，风格豪放；粤绣则常以凤凰、牡丹、松鹤等为题材，色彩富丽夺目；蜀绣则注重画面的明丽清秀，针法精湛细腻。蜀绣针法丰富，既有长于刺绣花鸟虫鱼等细腻的工笔，又善于表现气势磅礴的山水图景。

Each of the four famous embroideries has its own unique themes and styles. Su embroidery's works, including landscapes, insects, fish, and figures, are rich in poetic and artistic sentiment. Xiang embroidery covers a wide range of themes with a bold style. Yue embroidery often features subjects like phoenixes, peonies, pines, and cranes, with vibrant and dazzling colors. Shu embroidery focuses on bright and delicate images, with exquisite and detailed needlework. Shu embroidery has a rich variety of needle techniques, excelling in fine work like embroidering flowers, birds, insects, and fish, as well as depicting majestic landscapes with a grandeur.
