Antoine or Louis Le Nain, Peasant Family in an Interior
(jazz music) [Dr. Zucker] We're at the Louvre and we're looking at a painting by the Le Nain brothers.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] That's what the Le Nain brothers were known for, these somber and serious images of peasants, which we would call genre paintings or scenes from everyday life and it's something that we see a lot of, especially in Holland in the 17th century.발음듣기
[Dr. Zucker] This was a new type of painting and it's interesting to think that it really took a middle class to develop a taste for the lower class.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] Right, so there's a sense of the virtuousness and morality of this peasant family.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] But even in their poverty there's something intrinsically good about them and we see several generations of the family, we have a very simple interior, we have a cat and a dog, and a figure playing an instrument, and the figures arranged in a relief across the foreground.발음듣기
Some off-whites and a little bit of green and almost nothing else, this very reduced palette, but the artist is able to really use that and use tone to show the beautiful modulation of light as it passes across the folds of the cloth.발음듣기
Because the figures are very close to the foreground, we have that raking light coming from the right and very strong contrasts of light and dark.발음듣기
If you just take the female figures, who are close to the foreground, the right side of their faces illuminated, the left side as we look at it, in shadow.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] But that has a kind of psychological feeling to it that almost reminds me at the same time of what Rembrandt is doing with light, using light and shadow on the face to indicate a kind of psychological depth.발음듣기
You have that raking light that we were talking about just a moment ago, but then the boy is really silhouette against the light of the fire, so you have the exterior light coming in from a presumed window on the right side and then you have the interior light of the hearth.발음듣기
[Dr. Harris] And you have this repeated lines from folds of drapery that help bring your eye across the canvas.발음듣기
This issue of simplicity is shown not only, of course, in their economic class, it's shown not only in their dress and the simplicity of the interior, but even in the food that's out, the bowl of salt, there's wine, and there's one loaf of bread.발음듣기
