EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the exquisite beauty of a Woman's Changfu, an informal court robe from the Qing dynasty in China (1644-1911). Dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century, this robe showcases the intricate craftsmanship and artistic mastery of Chinese clothing during that era. The vibrant colors and elaborate embroidery on this robe are truly mesmerizing. The floral patterns delicately stitched using techniques such as back and stem stitches, back knot overcast stem stitches, laid work, couching, and needlework create a visual feast for the eyes. Metal buttons add a touch of elegance to this already magnificent piece. Made from silk plain gauze weave fabric with supplementary patterning warps and extended weft loop fringe, this robe is not only visually appealing but also represents the rich heritage and cultural significance of Chinese art. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's gallery dedicated to Asian art, this Woman's Changfu serves as a testament to China's historical fashion traditions. It offers viewers a glimpse into the opulent court dress worn by women during the Qing dynasty. As you admire this remarkable artwork captured in photographic form by an unknown artist, take a moment to appreciate its intricate design and marvel at how it seamlessly blends nature-inspired motifs with traditional Chinese aesthetics.
