附註項繪畫作者為方觀承,詩句亦方觀承作。考之未署年日奏章,可知當時京畿一帶盛産優質棉花,織布精美,本銷之外,復輸送黃河流域一帶,並且外銷朝鮮。 每圖各系一文二詩。文者簡述耕種織造之工藝技術,二詩一衘製一方作,皆就圖而立說。每圖各有標題,可與《天工開物》相參。 Fang Guangcheng was the author of painting and poems of this book. From the reports to Emperor, we learn that a good harvest of fine cottons growing nearby the capital (Beijing) for weaving good cloth sold to the regions of Yellow River Valley and Korea was praised and recorded in the book. Each illustration had an essay and two poems. The essay was about the techniques of planting and weaving of cottons, and with illustration attached in book, one poem was composed by Emperor Gan Long(1711-1799) while the other was composed by Fang. Each illustration had its own title and can be compared with another book 'tian gong kai wu'.
