梵高巴黎时期风景画《蒙马特采石场的山丘》高清图片

作品简介

巴黎的蒙马特区以其聚居的艺术家而闻名——这在梵高时代已然如此。但当时的蒙马特山仅有一侧建满房屋，梵高描绘的正是另一侧尚未开发的风貌：采石场裸露的岩层与远处渐被城区吞没的风车群构成主要景观。前景堆砌的木材后方，可见散落的巨型石块。

梵高并非唯一描绘此风景的画家。他试图通过熟悉场景提升画作销路，却未能如愿——这种商业考量与艺术追求的冲突，贯穿其巴黎时期创作。

The Paris district of Montmartre is well known for the artists who live and work there. That was already true in Van Gogh's day. But the hill of Montmartre then had buildings only on one side. Here, Van Gogh painted the other side. You can see quarries and a view of the mills, which had already been absorbed into the built-up part of the district. In the foreground is a pile of wood; behind it are blocks of stone.

Van Gogh was not the only artist to paint this picturesque place. He hoped that if he depicted a familiar scene, his painting would sell well. Unfortunately, it did not work out that way.
