Silk Hand Embroidery Painting - Summer Night

 The silk embroidery Summer Night is based on an oil painting by a Chinese oil painting artist, Wang Ke Wei. It depicts a group of ladies take a tour around a lake on a summer night in Tang Dynasty. The embroidery artist applied random stitches with overlap and crisscross of different colours. .The smooth texture of skin achieved by using very fine split silk threads. The embroidery artist used different directions of stitches in the lake, lotus leaves and trees, thus to create different layers that helped the main body of this silk embroidery, ,the ladies, stand out in the viewer's sight. It is such a beautifully embroidered silk artwork that we can almost feel the fragrance of the lotus flowers and the moon light when watching it.
