【御苑靈境，詩畫同幀】

此幅「長春仙館」作品，以絲線為墨，錦緞為宣，將乾隆御筆題詩的墨韻與宮廷畫師的彩繪筆意，於一針一線間重現。作品完整還原《圓明園四十景圖》中「長春仙館」原貌，左側以書法繡乾隆禦制詩並汪由敦恭楷，右側以平繡再現宮廷畫家冷枚、唐岱、沈源筆下「屋宇深邃，重廊曲檻，逶迤相接」的仙館盛景。一草一木，一亭一閣，皆環環相扣，氣韻相連，在方寸之間營造出「庭院深深深幾許」的皇家園林意境。這不僅是一件刺繡，更是一場跨越兩百餘年的宮廷藝術對話。

【歷史餘韻，紙上桃源】

長春仙館，曾是雍正賜予皇四子弘曆（即乾隆皇帝）居所。這幅作品所凝固的，正是其鼎盛時期的模樣：既有皇家苑囿的富麗精工，又充滿文人園居的詩意棲居理想。它不僅是對一項已消逝於火中的「萬園之園」的深情追摹，更是對「常時問寢地，曩歲讀書堂」這一孝親情懷與帝王往事的永恆銘記。以當代臻絕的刺繡技藝，致敬古時繪畫、書法、建築與園林藝術，成為承載多重文化遺產的珍貴載體。

「一園勝景隨針駐，半卷詩書共線長」

[Imperial Garden Ethereal Realm: Poetry and Painting in One Frame]

This work, “Eternal Spring Fairy Lodge,” uses silk threads as ink and brocade as xuan paper, recreating the ink charm of Emperor Qianlong’s inscribed poem and the colorful brushwork of the court painters stitch by stitch. The piece faithfully restores the original appearance of “Eternal Spring Fairy Lodge” from the Forty Scenes of the Old Summer Palace. On the left, Emperor Qianlong’s poem and Wang Youdun’s meticulous calligraphy are embroidered, while on the right, the “deep and serene architecture, winding corridors, and gracefully connected pavilions” depicted by court painters Leng Mei, Tang Dai, and Shen Yuan are brought to life with flat embroidery. Every plant, tree, pavilion,, and terrace is intricately interconnected, with a cohesive rhythm, creating within a limited space the imperial garden ambiance of “how deep, how deep, the courtyard’s deep embrace.” This is not merely an embroidery but a dialogue spanning over two centuries of court artistry.

[Historical Resonance, a Peach Blossom Spring on Paper]

Eternal Spring Fairy Lodge was once bestowed by Emperor Yongzheng to his fourth son, Hongli (the future Emperor Qianlong), as his residence. This work captures its appearance at its peak: it embodies both the opulence and exquisite craftsmanship of an imperial garden and the poetic ideal of a literati’s retreat. It is not only a heartfelt tribute to the “Garden of Gardens” lost to flames but also an eternal remembrance of the filial devotion and imperial memories encapsulated in the lines, “Where I once asked after my parents’ rest, and studied in the hall of bygone years.” Through contemporary, unparalleled embroidery artistry, it pays homage to ancient painting, calligraphy, architecture, and garden design, becoming a treasured carrier of multifaceted cultural heritage.

“A garden’s finest views held fast by the needle’s art, Half a volume of poems extended by the silk thread’s part.”
