Spring is a good time to raise silkworms and reel.
During the Southern Song Dynasty in China, there was a "Textile Science Atlas".
After reading it, you will be able to learn how to make a songfu!
Today, let's get to know "Silkworm Weaving Map".
Silkworm weaving map" partial.
Eleven-meter promenade***
Draw twenty-four words of silkworm weaving.
This "Silkworm Weaving Map" was made by Lou Xuan (shú) of the Southern Song Dynasty.
It is an early Chinese painting that records the production technology of silkworm weaving.
The total length is nearly 11 meters.
The frontispiece uses Song Dynasty silk.
The color is very bright.
Silkworm weaving map" partial.
The whole volume is based on the 24 solar terms of China.
Silkworm weavers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang more than 800 years ago in China.
Starting from the "Wax Moon Bathing Silkworm".
Until "disembarkation and boxing".
The whole production process of silkworm raising and silk weaving is vividly drawn.
Silkworm weaving map" partial.
Twenty-four small drawings are cleverly linked together through a long corridor.
The panorama shows the silkworm farmers.
The whole process from spring silkworm spinning to spinning garments.
It meticulously records the division of labor between silkworm raising and weaving in ancient China.
and processes.
The whole painting is highly realistic and detailed.
It is an authoritative historical material for the study of ancient weaving technology.
Accurately restore the work scene!
On "technical work", we have to look at the Southern Song Dynasty.
The Silkworm Weaving Diagram not only completely depicts the whole process of silkworm weaving.
Labor occupation of various personalities of the time.
There is also a fine distinction between clothing and personality traits.
In the phrase "busy picking leaves".
Scorching summer heat.
Five elderly farmers are busy picking mulberry leaves.
Some are still bent over barefoot.
Shoulders of a large basket full of mulberry leaves.
The picture of leaf picking in full swing is vivid.
There are also several secret "black technologies" for silkworm raising and clothing
You can find it all on this picture.
Flame cocoon "Flame cocoon" is a method of warming silkworms.
Place two charcoal braziers on the ground in the middle of the silkworm room.
There is a basin next to it to adjust the humidity at any time.
There is also a tall lampstand.
Indicates the need for careful management around the clock.
According to research. This method is still used by sericulture farmers today.
Salt cocoon urn storage. "Salt cocoon urn storage" is a method used to preserve silkworm cocoons.
In the picture, three large urns are side by side.
The two urns have been sealed with mud.
An urn with an open mouth waiting to be cocooned with salt.
The cocoon operator collects the cocoon, scales the cocoon, and the mud respectively.
This method can avoid the cocoon from turning into a moth in a short period of time.
This prolongs the time for silk reelers to process the cocoons.
It is recorded in the "Qi Min Yao Shu" and the "Complete Book of Agricultural Administration".
Pull flowers. The flower pulling machine is an important tool for weaving.
According to the literature.
In China's Shang and Zhou dynasties, there were jacquard fabrics with simple geometric patterns.
However, the description of the structure of the machine is vague.
For the first time, this scroll depicts the entire body of a flower machine.
as well as the structure and methods of operation.
The flower machine painted in the "Heavenly Creation" and "The Complete Book of Agricultural Administration".
All of them are more than 400 years later than this scroll.
The woman sitting at the front of the machine is engrossed in the operation of the machine.
Above the plane sat a barefoot child.
I was holding back enough strength to lift the warp.
Work hard to "your toes".
A total of 74 figures are depicted in the scroll.
Each one is both physical and vivid.
Nearly 6,000 years of weaving history in China.
The production technology of sericulture silk has been finalized in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Why did the Southern Song Dynasty create such a painting?
A detailed textile science atlas?
Let's start with the background of the times at that time.
After Song Gaozong ascended the throne of Lin'an (now Hangzhou, Zhejiang).
Great importance is attached to the production of agricultural mulberry.
At that time, he was in charge of the county order of Qianxian County
He painted the "Ploughing Map" and "Weaving Map" and dedicated them to Gaozong.
The diagram depicts in detail the process of folk mulberry production.
There was such a record in the literature of the time.
The picture is as good as it gets, and the poem is as good as it gets, and it is recited several times by the government and the opposition at one time.
Some of the small paintings are also marked in small block letters underneath.
The writer is Empress Wu of the Southern Song Dynasty.
The emperor ploughed the silkworm after the pro-ploughing".
During the Song Gaozong period, the people's agricultural policy ideas were encouraged.
It has played a role in rewarding farming and weaving and disseminating production technology.
China is the first country in the world to raise silkworms and weave silk.
China has nearly 6,000 years of weaving history.
Silkworm Weaving Map" was painted at that time for the production of silkworm silk.
Its technology is perfect and the equipment is advanced.
It shows that the ancient sericulture silk production technology has been finalized so far.
Nothing has changed since.
For the study of the Southern Song Dynasty in China.
Socio-economic and handicraft developments.
It provides vivid and vivid precious historical materials.
Spring silkworms spin silk Spring is getting stronger.
Cai Sang Mo tried on spring clothes.
Welcome the arrival of spring with a new look!
