今天和tony 教授约定去伦敦的华勒斯典藏馆.初次走进这座建筑,给我感觉是室内装潢,一桌一椅、一瓶一画都精致无比,“贵气逼人”,但这只是表面不加思量其文化语境一扫而过的印象。但要是以寻觅艺术史长河中,洛可可留下的点点星芒之心态去探访,就会触摸到真实而完整的历史切片。下面我大概介绍一下,并且挑选一些精品中的精品和大家分享。华勒斯典藏馆附近最近的地铁站是庞德街站。near brond Street station .
典藏馆的收藏范围从中世纪、文艺复兴的艺术品,到十八世纪的法国艺术;并且,它有着大不列颠最好的王侯军武器与盔甲的收藏。这些藏品来自赫特福德郡(Hertford)的前四位侯爵,及第四位侯爵之子理查德·华勒斯爵士(Sir Richard Wallace)。理查德·华勒斯的遗孀华勒斯夫人(Lady Wallace)在1897年去世之际,将藏品赠予英国国家。1900年开始,于伦敦曼彻斯特广场的其家族故居赫尔福德公馆(Hertford House),华勒斯典藏馆正式面向公众开放至今。
这是此馆主人小时候画像,早起欧洲还没有相机,贵族们喜欢请画家画小幅肖像,带在身上或者收藏在家里,或者送给心爱的人....

Jean-honore fragonard .the swing.1767
The swing is fragonard’s most famous painting .one critic wrote the grace of its execution and the tact of the artist excuse the sauciness of the subject.a tantalising woman .delicious in her froth of the pink silk .is poised in mid-air beyond the reach of both her elderly husband and her glowing lover .the fantastical park-landscape provides an ideal setting .a statue of love makes the viewer party to the adulterous deception by holding his finger to his lips .the flirtatiously discarded slipper adds the prefect note of artful abandon
The dramatist colle related the story behind the swing .the history painter doyen was summoned by an unnamed gentleman of the court to attend him at his pleasure house .the gentleman pointed to his mistress and said I should like you to paint madame on a swing pushed by a bishop .myself you will place a n a position where I can observe this charming girls legs .and more still if you wish to enliven your picture further .doyen suggested that the picture would be rendered yet more agreeable by the addition of madame’s slippers flying through the air and that fragonard .rather than himself .wiulf be the best man for the job.(fragonard does not in the end make any reference to the church in his composition) fragonard chose a slightly old-fashined Rococo style for the painting creating the link between the licentious subjects with the style that had not existed at the beginning.the identity of the patron is uncertain
秋千是弗罗诺纳最着名的绘画作品。一位评论家写下了它的执行的优雅和艺术家的机智,为这个主题的美好理由辩解。一个诱人的女人。她粉红色的丝绸泡沫中的狡猾。她的老人丈夫和她发光的情人都能接触到。这个梦幻般的公园景观提供了一个理想的环境。爱的雕像使得观众派对通过将他的手指放在他的嘴唇上进行通奸行为。这个轻浮的拖鞋添加了完美的音符巧妙地放弃
这位剧作家收集了这个秋千背后的故事。历史画家约恩被一位不知名的绅士召集到他的乐园里。这位绅士指着他的情妇说,我应该让你在一个摇摆中画女士.我自己,你会放置一个位置,在那里我可以观察到这个迷人的女孩的腿。更多的仍然是如果你想进一步活跃你的照片。多伊恩建议,通过增加夫人的拖鞋飞过(弗洛纳德最终没有在他的作品中提及任何教堂),弗罗纳纳尔为这幅画选择了一种略显陈旧的洛可可式风格,创作出了这幅作品。在一开始就没有存在风格的淫荡,这位顾客的身份是不确定的
