【华丽巴洛克-动感夸张戏剧化】夜巡5

《夜巡》是17世纪荷兰画家伦勃朗的名画。现藏于荷兰阿姆斯特丹美术馆。此画所描绘的其实是白天队长与副队长的景象,因光线昏暗而被误为是描绘夜间,画中人物确有其人,有些人认为此画暗藏某些故事另有深意。

The first such paintings were done in the early 1500s and the last ones not long after Rembrandt finished the Night Watch. A particular style developed and many of these large canvasses show the guardsmen lined up formally in serried ranks as one contemporary put it, as if they could all be decapitated with just one stroke of a sword.
The genre of group portraits of militia companies to which The Night Watch belongs is a very awkward one in some ways because the painter had a big problem because militia companies were quite large and they paid individually for their portraits and so you might have to include 30 men. It's a bit like organising a group photograph today and everyone knows that the results tend to be rather stiff and formal and unnatural.
