What is the relationship between the artist and the model? Why has she got her eyes downcast in this way? Perhaps he's said something a little inappropriate to her. Perhaps he's made some kind of suggestion, you know, you speculate, but you're intended to speculate.
Some believe that this is Vermeer's wife Catharina, who would have been about 35 at the time. Of Vermeer's 34 paintings, no less than 18 focus on a single woman. Whoever the woman in "The Art of Painting" was, her face was perfectly pleasing to the 17th century art lover.
They liked red lips and they liked little dimples in the chin. But I think that the complexion and the white very clear skin was absolutely very attractive to contemporary viewers.画家和模特儿是什么关系?她为何低垂着双眼?也许是因为画家说了什么不得体的话,或做了某种暗示,任凭人们揣测,这正是画家的本意。有人认为,这是维梅尔的妻子卡特琳娜。当时她应该是35岁了。在维梅尔的34幅画中,就有18幅是以单一女子为主角。不论“绘画艺术”中的女子为何人,她的脸庞正好迎合了17实世纪艺术爱好者的喜好,他们喜欢娇艳欲滴的红唇和下巴上的小窝,但我认为画中女子的肤色和白皙无暇的肌肤对当时的人而言极具吸引力。 |
