Description: Center Frame contentsHeight: 66 inchesWidth: 35 inchesDepth: 2.0 in Side Dragon Frame contentsHeight: 76 inchesWidth: 7 inchesDepth: 2.0 in At the funeral ceremony of the 11th Empress of the Qing Dynasty, the achievement, status, title (隆裕造), and place of manufacture (状元坊) of silk embroidery are clearly engraved. Antiquities experts say that the silk drapery was in the tomb of Empress Longwei (清西陵崇陵). Empress Dowager Longyu (隆裕太后, 孝定景皇后) She promulgated the "Edict of Emperor (Puyi ) Abdication", which ended the rule of the Qing Dynasty, and also ended China's two thousand-year-old autocratic monarchy. Puyi's abdication edict' was a great historical decision that changed the history of the whole world. Empress Dowager Longyu (孝定景皇后) was the last Empress Dowager, and her determination to end the feudal era is an achievement revered by the world and respected by modern Chinese people. Empress Dowager Longyu (February 3, 1868-February 22, 1913) In the 14th year of Guangxu's reign(光緖帝) (1888), The Empress Dowager was forced to marry under the pressure of the powerful cixi and was crowned queen the following year. On the 17th day of the first lunar month in the second year of the Republic of China (February 22, 1913), Empress Dowager Longyu died in Changchun Palace, one of the six palaces in the west, at the age of 46. The Republic of China commemorates the achievements of Empress Dowager Longyu, and after a grand funeral with a special amount of money, he was buried with the Guangxi Festival at Cheongseo Tomb (清西陵). This Banner or insignia was made for Empress Dowager Longyu (隆裕造) by Guangzhou (广州 ) Zhuangyuanfang (状元坊) at the funeral of Empress Dowager Longyu in 1913. Antiquities experts speculate that this flag covered the coffin of Empress Rongwei (清西陵崇陵) inside. Therefore, only the writings of the sutras can be seen on the coffin at present. (3rd photo ) 3rd photo: There is no banner or insignia on the flat coffin with the Sutra written under the wooden arch with the exterior repaired. In the silk embroidery, the achievements of Empress Dowager Longyu are marked with ruby ​​beads, and the real gold thread 2 of yellow dragon, five kinds of phoenix, real gold thread Foo Dog, crane, butterfly, peony, lotus, plum, real gold thread bat, etc. The rims are lead glass mirrors used in the Qing Dynasty, and the embroidery thread is a huge real gold thread (with acid tested over 14k gold). The two huge yellow dragons, one each, are made of gold thread, and the bulging red pouch with the lower robe (状元坊)(隆裕造) is filled with Tibetan Chiru hair (Shahtoosh). This Banner or insignia overall shape is extremely beautiful and delicate, as it was used for the Empress Dowager funeral.Also,As such, it is the first discovery that Empress Dowager's name (隆裕造) is clearly embroidered, and it is very rare and historical. Of course, the historical value is museum-grade. Most ancient Chinese tombs have been robbed or excavated. In 1938, Sungneung Palace was robbed or excavated, and many treasures in the tomb were lost. Lost treasures were sold to collectors through auctions or private transactions. Since the responsibility for loss due to robbery or excavation stems from the Chinese government's systemic mismanagement of cultural properties, the Chinese government is openly buying important cultural properties from among the missing treasures. It is hoped that the silk embroidery covered the coffin of Empress Dowager Longyu (隆裕造) 100 years ago will also be purchased by the Chinese government's Cultural Heritage Administration and returned to its original place. The Chinese Cultural Heritage Administration announced that cultural assets produced after the Xinhai Revolution 1911 (辛亥革命,1911) can be freely traded. This banner was made at the funeral of the Empress Dowager in 1913. In 1980, after minor renovations to the vacant Sungling Mausoleum (清西陵崇陵), the Chinese government officially opened it to the public and tourists from around the world. (状元坊) Zhuangyuanfang In the Qing Dynasty, mainly imperial silk embroidery was handcrafted by the best artisans here. Zhuangyuan Square is an ancient inner street with a history of more than 700 years. It is named after the former residence of Zhang Zhensun, the champion of the Song Dynasty. Since the reign of Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, there have been handicraft workshops processing gold and silver jewelry, costumes, Gu embroidery, and woolen hydrangea in the street, and it is well-known at home and abroad for its exquisite technology. what the many Chinese sayEmpress Dowager Longyu (孝定景皇后) is wise man among women(清朝最后一位皇太后的悲惨一生 ,曾被誉为“女中尧舜”_光绪帝) (后岐大廟) The royal tombs shrine where the tablets of the king and queen were enshrine.(后) is the Chinese character for king, emperor, and empress.(城西三堡) What does mean ? (清西陵)? Thanks for letting anyone know. The silk that wrapped the body of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (Dharani Sutra) was sold for 18 million dollars. The sutras are also written on the crown of Empress Longyu. Longyu (隆裕太后) sign Silk Embroidery is said to have been covered over the Buddhist scriptures. Currently, I get a lot of questions by email. This is definitely genuine. As a custom at that time, it is also listed in Empress Longyu's funeral list, and information about its production can be found in (状元坊) Zhuangyuanfang. (Chinese Cultural Heritage Administration) purchases cultural properties related to historical figures or important events from the government. Naturally, Empress Longyu was a historical figure and the protagonist of the incident. She promulgated the "Edict of Emperor (Puyi) Abdication", which ended the rule of the Qing Dynasty, and also ended China's two thousand-year-old autocratic monarchy. The current selling price is set very low. If you can afford it, I recommend investing in the future. In silk embroidery, there are everything precious and good in the world, such as the yellow dragon, lion dog, five kinds of phoenix, crane, turtle, lotus, peony, and plum made of gold thread, exclusive to the royal family. Please let me know if you need comments and additional photos. This Banner accepts local pickup only after authenticity is verified.
