Embroidery of Maitreya Buddha
Silk
刺繡彌勒佛坐像 韓希孟
中國
明代（1368～1644）晚期顧繡作品。素綾地，採衣線繡彌勒佛坐像。佛面貌豐圓，著百衲衣，敞衣露懷，腹部渾圓。右手執數珠，左手持布袋，坐於蒲團上。圖上方題贊「於一豪（毫）端現／寶王剎向微／塵裏轉大法／輪 董其昌書」，下鈐董其昌朱印一方。
此作針法多變，主要以合股衣線刺繡而成。彌勒腹部以旋針順線法表現，顯得絲理有致，圓潤光澤。特別是百衲衣運用多種針法處理，衲衣部分採釘線法，紋飾則以三交五結拉網繡法，輪廓交界運用圈金線和花線壓邊，以柔化諸多顏色間的差異。蒲團繡以編蒲織紋，細緻逼真。顧繡向以分絲劈縷不著痕跡著稱，然此圖反以合股衣線刺繡，畫面顯得凝重渾厚，頗為特殊。
