Bruegel, the Dutch Proverbs
(piano music) We're in the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin and we're looking at Peter Bruegel's "Netherlandish Proverbs" which is wonderfully fun.발음듣기
It is, and it really suggests that not all that much has changed in the last four-five hundred years.발음듣기
It depicts well over a hundred proverbs that is sayings, and they speak too often in a humorous way - the foibles of humanity.발음듣기
On the bottom left you see a man who seems to be intent on hitting his head against a brick wall.발음듣기
How about the figure on the lower right who seems to be stretching his arms toward two loaves of bread that he can barely reach?발음듣기
In fact, he can't quite reach from one to the other and we all know the expression "living from paycheck to paycheck". That is: "living from loaf to loaf".발음듣기
Right next to him, and just below the table, you see somebody who's holding his head and rather upset that he spilled his porridge.발음듣기
There's real pleasure in moving through this and recognizing visually what is always an auditory saying.발음듣기
One of my favorites and one of the silliest is showing the pies or tarts that are being used as roofing material on the house on the upper left.발음듣기
This is a reference that doesn't really have an equivalent in modern English and it is "tiling one's house with pies".발음듣기
