"Bamboo Silk Embroidered Painting Curtain" originated in the late Qing Dynasty and was initiated by Fang Bingnan (1880- 1920), a painter from Liangping, Sichuan. He painted on bamboo curtains such as sedan chairs, door curtains and so on, and then painted them vermilion after technical treatment, white in the middle hall and white in the upper hall. Hanging on the powder wall of the living room, the bamboo silk curtain looks fresh and simple, unique, full of strong local characteristics and national flavor. This fashionable folk art could only enter the well-off families at that time.

On the basis of past experience, "Bamboo Silk Embroidered Painting Curtain" of Longfei Art Factory in Wusheng County, Sichuan Province has improved and innovated the painting techniques on bamboo curtain, and integrated the embroidery technology into bamboo curtain painting, forming the technological characteristics of combining embroidery with painting, embroidering landscapes, flowers and birds, figures and animals, enriching the expression forms of bamboo curtain painting and making it closer to the times and life. Vu Thang Longfei Bamboo Silk Embroidery Curtain uses hand-made technology to draw bamboo into hair-thin bamboo silk, and uses silk as warp to weave a bamboo curtain with silky luster, on which Chinese paintings such as figures, flowers, birds, animals and landscapes are embroidered or painted, integrating technology and painting, with the theme of promoting national art, which has strong ornamental value. With the continuous improvement of bamboo curtain technology and artistic level, products are increasingly diversified, from bamboo embroidered curtains and bamboo curtain watercolors to silk embroidered handkerchiefs, silk embroidered scarves and glass paintings.
