And on an island that in the ancient world was called Thera, we found what seems to be an entire city frozen in time.발음듣기
대기중
We might be better off saying what's left of the island because in the 17th century, most archaeologists agree, there was a volcanic eruption that basically blew open the middle of the island.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] Some geologists think that this eruption was perhaps the largest volcanic eruption on the entire earth in the last 5,000 years.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] As a result, just like in Pompeii, a town on the island of Santorini or ancient Thera, Akrotiri, was preserved under layers of volcanic ash and pumice.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] But unlike Pompeii, the site was not discovered before modern archaeological techniques had developed and so whereas in Pompeii there was extensive damage by people who were removing art as trophies, the site at Thera is in the process of being systematically studied and uncovered.발음듣기
대기중
It's interesting because archaeologists think that the earliest people in Akrotiri did not have much relationship with either Mycenae or with the Minoans on Crete.발음듣기
대기중
But that seems to have changed later so much so that some art historians think that Akrotiri became a settlement that was directly related and perhaps directly under the control of the Minoans.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] Probably the most outstanding feature of the frescoes that we've found, and these are true frescoes, that is, this is wet painting over a fine layer of plaster over a rougher layer of plaster, over straw.발음듣기
대기중
But probably the most interesting feature is that these provide for us the very earliest examples of landscape painting.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] It's hard to call them landscape painting in the way that we might think about it, with fields and trees and sky, because it's very abstracted, very stylized.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] And then we see again abstracted renderings of lilies, of flowering plants, that decorate the tops of those rocks as well as representations of swallows cavorting around the flowers.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] There's a shelf and above that the room is painted red and so, we don't have a sense of a blue sky.발음듣기
대기중
Now it's important as we look at this to distinguish between the in-painting that the museum has done for us to give us a sense of the whole room, verses the ancient fresco.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] Modern conservation techniques seek to stabilize and to give us a sense of what the image would have looked like without trying to restore the object to it's original state.발음듣기
대기중
This is probably most clear, not in this so-called Spring Room, but rather in another fresco know as The Boxing Boys.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] We have to be cautious about reading into it too much because to us there's a sense of almost the pleasure of nature in the scene of animals and also in the Spring fresco, where we can almost sense a warm day, 발음듣기
대기중
of flowers blowing in the wind, a sense of colors being intensified by the sunlight, of birds in the air, the pleasures of a spring day.발음듣기
대기중
But those are to eyes that have grown up in the 21st century, not eyes that grew up in 1700 B.C.E.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] With The Boxing Boys we can clearly see that very little remained from the ancient fresco but enough to give us a sense of a very unusual composition of two boys who have boxing mitts on, whose heads are shaven except for pony tails in the front and back of their heads.발음듣기
대기중
They seem to be nude otherwise except for their boxing gloves and I see some traces of jewelry around the upper arm and the neck of the figure on the left.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] We have almost no written records from the Bronze Age and the Aegean and absolutely none from the Cyclades.발음듣기
