托马斯·科尔风景画《蒂沃利附近早晨的风景》高清图片

作品简介

科尔出生于英格兰，后又两度造访欧洲，期间创作的欧陆风景与其美国题材作品交相辉映。意大利风光尤令他着迷，他借鉴克劳德·洛兰等欧洲大师的艺术传统加以描绘。1832年春，他在罗马郊野完成速写，但直至六月返回佛罗伦萨后才绘制此幅油画。1834年他在信中如此描述这件作品："蒂沃利附近的景致，描绘一座古桥与被称为'尼禄拱门'的渡槽遗迹：道路穿过残存的拱门;这是晨雾自山间升腾的朝景。"

Cole was born in England and made two later extended visits to Europe, where he painted views of the scenery to vie with his American vistas. The landscape of Italy particularly interested him, and he drew on the artistic conventions of European masters such as Claude Lorrain to portray it. In the spring of 1832, he made sketches in the Roman Campagna, but he did not paint this canvas until after he returned to Florence in June. Later, in 1834, he described the work in a letter: “A view near Tivoli, representing a bridge, and a part of an ancient aqueduct, called ‘Il Arco di Nerone’: a road passes under the remaining arch; it is a morning scene, with the mists rising from the mountains.”
