扬·凡·艾克作品《圣方济各接受圣痕》高清图片

作品简介

　　这幅画作精彩展现了扬·凡·艾克极为精细的绘画技巧，凸显了他营造画面的能力，画面看似十分清晰，却又给人一种遥远的感觉。画家精心描绘了阿西西的圣方济各在荒野中禁食四十天期间领受被钉在十字架上的基督圣痕的那一刻，画面中，基督被一位六翼天使(即天使)托举在空中。尽管凡·艾克将这一场景置于传说中的岩石景观之中，但他在远处画了一座热闹的尼德兰城市，仿佛在暗示这一奇迹不受时间和地域的限制。

　　这幅画尺寸较小，表明它原本是一件便于携带的私人物件，人们可以轻松地拿在手中，画中有诸多细节，值得人们仔细反复观赏。这幅画很可能在画家生前或去世后不久就开始流传，或许是早期的某位所有者在前往耶路撒冷朝圣时带着它一同上路。

This brilliant display of Jan van Eyck’s microscopic technique highlights his ability to create pictures that seem at once very sharp yet very far away. The artist meticulously depicted the moment during a forty-day fast in the wilderness when Francis of Assisi received the wounds of the crucified Christ, who is seen here held aloft by a seraph, or angel. Although Van Eyck positioned the scene in the rocky landscape of legend, he included a bustling Netherlandish city in distance, as if to suggest that the miracle is visible outside boundaries of time or geography.

The picture’s small size suggests that it was intended as a portable and personal object, one easily held in the hands and filled with details that reward close and repeated examination. The painting likely traveled in the artist’s lifetime or shortly thereafter, possibly on an early owner’s pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
