The Qingming Riverside Cross Stitch has always been an extremely sought-after presence in the collecting world, and is a coveted treasure for many big collectors. In November 2016, in a large auction, the 22-meter-long cross-stitch handicraft "Qingming Shanghe Tu" embroidered by six workers over a period of five years was sold for 1.2 million yuan.

Cross-stitch is an ancient ethnic embroidery with a long history. Cross-stitch products are the perfect embodiment of handmade art, exquisite and highly decorative and collectible.

This work, in the form of a long scroll, vividly records the cityscape of Bianjing in the Northern Song Dynasty in the 12th century and the living conditions of the people of all classes in the Han society at that time with pure and refined cross-stitch skills. Depicting the prosperity of the Qingming Festival at that time, it is a witness to the prosperity of Bianjing in that year and a reflection of the economic situation of the city in the Northern Song Dynasty. The collection is majestic, beautiful and exquisite, with a lifelike image of the arch bridge scroll carved in relief on top of the painting of the river at Qingming.
