And the Victorians painted Shakespeare quite a lot and they even painted Ophelia quite a lot.발음듣기
대기중
It's that moment after Hamlet has murdered Ophelia's father, and she has let herself fall into this river and is letting herself drown.발음듣기
대기중
Ruskin advised artists to go into nature with a "singleness of heart, rejecting nothing, selecting nothing, and scorning nothing."발음듣기
대기중
But that was the academic tradition, to take from Nature and improve on it and to idealize it.발음듣기
대기중
It's interesting, because when we think of painting in plein air, that is, when we think of painting outside, we often think of late 19th century, French painting.발음듣기
대기중
We think of the Impressionists, but off course, the Pre-Raphaelites in England were taking this seriously mid-century.발음듣기
대기중
You have insects, you have weather variations, you have animals, and Millais speaks about this with a wonderful sense of sarcasm in a letter that he wrote.발음듣기
대기중
Millais wrote: "I am threatened with a notice to appear before a magistrate for trespassing in a field and destroying the hay.발음듣기
대기중
I am also in danger of being blown by the wind into the water, and becoming intimate with the feelings of Ophelia when that lady sank to muddy death."발음듣기
대기중
There are two swans that not a little add to my misery by persisting in watching me from the exact spot I wish to paint.발음듣기
대기중
My sudden perilous evolutions on the extreme bank, to persuade them to evacuate their position, have the effect of entirely deranging my temper, my pictures, brushes and palets.발음듣기
대기중
Certainly, the painting of a picture under such circumstances, would be a greater punishment for a murderer than a hanging.발음듣기
대기중
The Pre-Raphaelites often show us images of solitary women, expressing feelings of longing and frustration and, in this case, madness.발음듣기
대기중
The model for this is the woman who'll become Rossetti's wife, who was his model and muse, Elizabeth Siddal.발음듣기
대기중
It was already an antique and was heavily embroidered with silver, and is beautifully rendered here as it floats.발음듣기
대기중
In fact, this painting was really praised in its day for being perhaps the most faithful to nature in terms of its botanical accuracy.발음듣기
대기중
It's actually wonderful to look at the way that those upturned roots mimic the pose of Ophelia's arms.발음듣기
대기중
We see forget-me-nots and poppies, which are a symbol of death, and violets, which are a symbol of faithfulness.발음듣기
대기중
In fact, she's got a chain of violets around her neck, which, I think, comes directly from the Shakespearian play.발음듣기
대기중
And interestingly, links all the way back to Shakespeare, who, as you said, is very specific as well about some of the flowers that are mentioned.발음듣기
대기중
But there are lovely passages when you look closely, not only at the flowers, but especially in the lower left, where we see the light moving through those weeds that are growing up in the water.발음듣기
대기중
The intensity of the colors and the specificicity - both of those things, I think, would have been really new and rather shocking to the Victorian public.발음듣기
대기중
Part of that was achieved because the Pre-Raphaelites rejected the traditional mode of painting, that is painting on a dark ground.발음듣기
대기중
Instead, they painted on a brilliant white ground and some of that luminosity really comes through.발음듣기
대기중
In addition, some of these artists actually painted not on a dry white ground, but on a ground that was still wet, which meant that that white was picked up by the colors and really creates this vivid luminousness.발음듣기
