Renoir, I noticed, preferred to point scenes of everyday life. For me, the most interesting of his paintings is his 1876 masterpiece Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette, which shows life in a busy neighbourhood of Paris on a Sunday afternoon.
我注意到,雷诺阿更喜欢描绘日常生活场景。在我看来,他最有趣的画作是他1876年的杰作《煎饼磨坊的舞会》,这幅画展现了某个周日下午巴黎一处热闹街区的生活。
①prefer to do sth. 更喜爱做某事
②masterpiece 杰作;名著
③neighbourhood 街区;城区
When I saw it up close, I was struck by the small areas of light across the painting, and the way the soft edges of the figures seemed to mix together. There's so much going on, but so little clear detail. This effect makes the lively movement of the dance almost jump out at the viewer.
近距离观赏,画面上遍布着小面积的光斑,人物柔和的轮廓似乎融为一体,令我大为震撼。画上呈现的内容如此丰富,但清晰的细节又如此之少。这种效果使得舞蹈动作活灵活现,引人注目。

尽管这两幅画的背景截然不同,但在我离开奥赛博物馆后很长一段时间里,一直萦绕着我的却是它们的相似之处一这种相似之处在印象派的画作中随处可见。莫奈和雷诺阿,以及其他志趣相投的艺术家,都力求从之前风格的束缚中挣脱出来。

Everyday subject matter was the main focus of their works, as opposed to the history paintings that had traditionally dominated European art. They employed free brushwork and used colours to show the effect of light on things, creating paintings that were far less realistic than the works that came before. To me, these techniques are the essence of the Impressionist view of art. Impressionist artists did not try to paint every detail in a scene-just a brief "impression" they had at that moment, burning with vivid colours and light, before it disappeared.

印象派的作品主要关注日常主题,这与传统上欧洲艺术界占主流的历史题材画作大相径庭。他们运用自由的笔法,使用色彩来表现光线投射在物体上的效果,创作的画远不如前人之作那么写实。印象派画家试图描绘的并非某个场景的所有细节一而 是他们当时产生的瞬间“印象”,在它消失之前,进发着鲜明的光彩。
