    February 3, 2026 / 0 Comments

    Decorated with cobalt-blue designs, vibrant enamels, and symbolic motifs, these works reflect dynastic taste, ritual life, and global exchange.

    鲁本斯,女人的化妆师

    July 29, 2016 / 0 Comments

    尽管彼得·保罗·鲁本斯(Peter Paul Rubens)那些令人印象深刻的作品都大约是四百年前的了,我仍然能够从他有关女性躯体的的代表作中寻找到慰藉。她们圆润,舒服,美丽。鲁本斯笔下的女人让我感觉到舒服,犹如我自己的肌肤,完全忽视了我的体重和大腿上各种凹凸——好吧,这并非完全是真的;每次当我发现这样的痕迹并且默默的记下时,更多地都让我发现自己在变老,而不是烦死自己至少有四年没有踏入健身房一步了。 我们的社会究竟发生了什么?我们的模特和女演员都一个比一个瘦,实际上,我可以想象如果一个肌肉发达的男人或者说高大英俊的男人要将手放在她们肩上,她们是否会碎成两半?个人认为,我更喜欢阿黛尔(Adele),亚美莉卡·费雷拉(America Ferrera)或者曾经的艾玛·斯通(Emma Stone)而不是妮可·里奇(Nicole Richie),凯拉·奈特莉(Kiera Knightly)或者现在的艾玛·斯通(Emma Stone)。当然,部分是源于基因,对于一个男人来说是毒药,而对于另一个男人可能是医药,但是女人的基因里是不允许她们自己成为零尺码的,她们会通过节食(挨饿)和过度运动来塑造身材。首先,我并不是健身的狂热分子,(当然,这是因为我没有健身房的会员卡),尽管我知道(并且宣传这样的事实)这样会让你的心脏更加健康和寿命更长。但是,诚实地说,我只是不喜欢流汗而已。 单地搜索一下“鲁本斯式的女人”会有一些有意思的结果——风险自负,请注意工作不宜的场合。将这些词儿与美丽高大的女人——确实是鼓励超重和肥胖——相联系,当然,这说得就有些远了。鲁本斯笔下的女人并不是超重或者肥胖,她们是真正的女人,也是那个时代女人的真实身材,臀部丰腴,具有分娩能力——想起来了吧,这是很重要的。你知道,女孩如果十二岁之前怀孕,她们是怎么做到的?好吧,我已经偏题了。 我并不确定这对于西方社会来说是否已经太晚了,特别是年轻的女孩子,她们努力减肥,臀部缩小,瘦骨嶙峋。幸运的是,对于每个地方的女人来说,人们的审美观随着时代发生着变化,也许下一个女人就能够做回她自己——任何身材都那么美丽,自信和智慧。难道不是自信的女人才性感吗? 为了你的感官享受,点击这本五彩的电子书吧:《彼得·保罗·鲁本斯》和《巴洛克艺术》。最后,女士们,请对你的下一块蛋糕或者派说“Yes”吧,享受现在的肌肤,享受现在的自己! 《彼得·保罗·鲁本斯》:http://www.ebooks.com/791266/peter-paul-rubens/charles-victoria/
