介绍（中）	这件物品来自Natalia de Shabelsky（1841-1905）的收藏，她是一位俄罗斯贵族，被迫保留她认为正在消失的祖国民间艺术传统。她游历了整个大俄罗斯，收集了许多富农阶级纺织艺术的优秀范例。从19世纪70年代到1902年移居法国，沙贝尔斯基收集了大量刺绣精美的手工编织家用纺织品和装饰丰富、图案精致的节日服装。布鲁克林博物馆的藏品包括许多精美的例子，包括大部分服装。沙贝尔斯基的部分藏品也收藏在波士顿美术博物馆、克利夫兰美术馆和圣彼得堡俄罗斯民族志博物馆俄罗斯刺绣中的女神是生育能力的象征。她通常被描绘成举起双臂，伴随着鸟和花。这种视觉图案的语言起源于异教徒时代，并在俄罗斯基督教化后继续用于刺绣。后来对女神的描绘非常程式化，类似于生命的植物或树木。这个人物的面部特征比大多数例子都具有更大的人文素质。这个人物手里还拿着一个物体，可能是一个太阳圆盘。大量的植物图案，包括从女神裙子上长出来的图案，表明这些图案是为了代表农业的肥沃。
介绍（英）	This object is from the collection of Natalia de Shabelsky (1841-1905), a Russian noblewoman compelled to preserve what she perceived as the vanishing folk art traditions of her native country. Traveling extensively throughout Great Russia, she collected many fine examples of textile art of the wealthy peasant class. From the 1870s until moving to France in 1902, Shabelsky amassed a large collection of intricately embroidered hand-woven household textiles and opulent festival garments with rich decoration and elaborate motifs. The Brooklyn Museum holdings include many fine examples including the majority of the garments. Portions of Shabelsky's collection are also housed at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Cleveland Art Museum, and the Russian Museum of Ethnography in St. Petersburg. The goddess in Russian embroidery is a symbol of fertility. She is commonly depicted with upraised arms and accompanied by birds and flowers. This language of visual motifs originated in Pagan times and continued to be used in embroidery after the Christianization of Russia. Later depictions of the goddess are very stylized, resembling a plant or tree of life. This figure has a greater humanistic quality with her facial features than most examples. The figure also holds an object, possibly a sun disk aloft in her hand. The abundance of plant motifs, including those growing from the goddess's skirt suggests the motifs were meant to represent agricultural fertility.
