介绍（中）	这款工作包是 1600 年代后期英国业余刺绣的一个很好的例子，上面印有制作它的年轻针线工的首字母，她还添加了 1669 年的日期和她的年龄 10 岁。该袋子原本用于存放刺绣工具和用品，正面和背面均用红色羊毛线装饰，主要是在亚麻基础上采用双针迹。刺绣是十七世纪英国女性教育的重要组成部分;学生通常至少完成一个展示各种技术和设计的采样器。到十七世纪中叶，在采样器上工作的重复边框设计在当代设计词汇中变得不合时宜，源自欧洲大陆制作的十六世纪图案书籍，并由英国出版商改编。在像这个工作包这样的实用物品上找到老式的边框设计是不寻常的。然而，在精心组织但生动的设计中分离的图案 - 人物形象;本地植物和花卉，包括草莓、橡子和金银花;纹章动物，如狮子、豹子和雄鹿;以及更平淡无奇的生物，如鸟类和毛毛虫 - 是整个时代英国刺绣纺织品上的典型生物。
介绍（英）	A fine example of English amateur embroidery of the late 1600s, this work bag bears the initials of the young needleworker who made it, who also added the date 1669, and her age, ten. The bag, which would have been used to store embroidery implements and supplies, is decorated on both front and back with red wool thread, primarily in a double running stitch, on a linen foundation. Embroidery was an essential component of female education in England in the seventeenth century; students generally completed at least one sampler displaying a variety of techniques and designs. By the mid-seventeenth century the repeating border designs worked on samplers had become anachronistic in the contemporary design vocabulary, having been derived from sixteenth-century pattern books produced on the Continent and adapted by English publishers. To find an old-fashioned border design on a practical object like this work bag is unusual. Yet the detached motifs in the carefully organized yet lively design - human figures; native plants and flowers, including strawberries, acorns and honeysuckle; heraldic animals such as lions, leopards, and stags; and more prosaic creatures such as birds and caterpillars - are typical of those found on English embroidered textiles throughout this era.
