(jazz piano music) [Voiceover] We're in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and we're looking at a still life by one of the 17th century's best known still life painters, a man whose name is Willem Kalf.발음듣기
대기중
And the silver ewer is pretty fabulous and ostentatious and luxurious, but then there's that gold goblet stand behind it and that glass goblet with a fabulously complicated stem, and then of course, that Chinese-style porcelain bowl, maybe from China, next to that.발음듣기
대기중
These were fabulously precious objects, and it's an important reminder when looking at still lifes that what we're looking at are real treasures.발음듣기
대기중
These are things that really speak to the wealth and prosperity of Holland in the 17th century.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] Still life is an old subject matter in art history, but really comes into its own in the 17th century.발음듣기
대기중
But if we go back a little bit in the 15th century, we notice in paintings, for example by Robert Campin, beautiful still life objects included in paintings.발음듣기
대기중
But they are always within a religious context, often with symbolic religious meaning, but here not within that explicitly religious context.발음듣기
대기중
You can see its glass case has been opened, and you can just make out the hands of that ornate gold clock, and that is a reminder of time, which in turn is a reminder of our mortality, our eventual death.발음듣기
대기중
So even though we might be enjoying, literally, the fruits of life, all of this will come to an end.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] We're also reminded about the passage of time in that lemon that's been peeled, which we see so often in Dutch still life painting.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] But look at the surface of that lemon, look at the way that the artist is just in love with being able to use his extraordinary technique to define every bump of the surface of the rind, the cooler, almost spongy texture of the white just below the rind, and then the surface of the fruit itself, all of which is just spectacular.발음듣기
대기중
That attention to surface, that attention to the sparkling detail, can be seen in the glass and the silver, and of course the cooled quality of the surface of the porcelain.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] I love the bulges on the lemon that sits on the table, but also a little off the table and in our space.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] But there's also something inherently quiet and almost spiritual about the way that light is handled in this painting.발음듣기
대기중
It's entering into this architectural niche which is very dark and allows for this beautiful highlighting, almost a stage for these objects.발음듣기
대기중
And you have the reflectivity, but then you also have places where one object reflects another object, for instance the lower right of the silver vase is reflecting the yellow of the lemon.발음듣기
대기중
And then look at the way that light reflects off of and also passes through the glass at the center top, creating both shadow and illuminated shadow at the same time.발음듣기
대기중
[Voiceover] And it looks like on the bottom foot of that silver pitcher, we can see the reflection of a window.발음듣기
대기중
In this description of texture in the reflectivity, we see a continuous tradition going back to artists like Campin and van Eyck, a very specifically northern tradition that here we see several hundreds years later in this beautiful still life painting by Willem Kalf. (jazz piano music)발음듣기
