트라팔가 광장 (Trafalgar Square) :
국립미술관 정면에 있는 트라팔가 광장은 1894년
넬슨 제독의 트라팔가 해전에서의 승리를
기념하기 위해 왕실의 마구간 자리를 닦아서 만든
광장이다.
광장 중앙의 넬슨 제독 석상은 높이가 52m이고
석상의 내면에 있는 큰 청동 사자 상은
프랑스군으로부터 노획한 대포를 녹여서 만든
것이다.
매년 12월 31일에는 수많은 젊은이들이 모여
묵은해를 보내고
새해를 맞이하는 키스를 나누는 장소이다.
청동 사자 상을
자세히 살펴보면 사자의 두발이 나란히 놓여 있는데,
사자는 속성상 항상
두발을 포개고 있는 것이 정상이나, 당시 청동
사자상 조각가가
동물에 대한 깊은
이해가 없어서 두발을 나란히 놓도록 조각했다 함.

2 Donizetti - The
Elixir of Love
Venus and
Mars
about 1485 BOTTICELLI,
Sandro about 1445 - 1510
Mars, god of war, was one of
the lovers of Venus, goddess
of love.
Here Mars is asleep and
unarmed, while Venus is
awake and alert!.
The meaning of the picture
is that love conquers war,
or love conquers all.
This work was probably a
piece of bedroom furniture,
perhaps a bedhead or piece
of wainscoting,
most probably the 'spalliera'
or backboard from a chest or
day bed.
The wasps ('vespe' in
Italian) at the top right
suggest a link with the
Vespucci family,
though they may be no more
than a symbol of the stings
of love.

Samson and

c. 1609
Oil on wood, 185 x 205 cm
Samson, the Jewish hero,
fell in love with Delilah.
She was bribed by the
Philistines,
and
discovered that his strength
came from his hair which had
never been cut.
While he was
asleep it was cut, Samson
was drained of his strength
and
the Philistines were able
to capture him. Old
Testament (Judges 16:
17-20).
Rubens depicts a candlelit
interior; the Philistines
wait at the door,
one of their
number cuts Samson's hair,
while an elderly woman
provides
extra light. In a niche
behind is a statue of the
goddess of love, Venus, with
Cupid
a
reference to the cause of
Samson's fate.
Seaport with the Embarkation
of the Queen of Sheba
1648
CLAUDE 1604/5? - 1682
The Bible relates how the
Queen of Sheba visited King
Solomon in Jerusalem (1
Kings 10).
Their meeting was often
painted, but it was unusual
to depict the Queen's
embarkation.
Many of
Claude's paintings are
concerned with the theme of
journeying;
here he creates an
imaginary seaport.
This painting
and 'Landscape with the
Marriage of Isaac and
Rebecca', also in the
Gallery,
were sold by Claude as a
pair to the Duc de Bouillon
(1605 - 1652),
general of
the Papal army. The pair
complement each other
depicting
joyful occasions in the Old
Testament.
The Queen of
Sheba is set down at dawn by
the sea,
and the
Marriage of Isaac and
Rebecca takes place in the
afternoon, inland.
Seaport with
the Embarkation of Saint
Ursula
1641 CLAUDE
1604/5? - 1682
According to legend Saint
Ursula was a British
princess
who made a
pilgrimage to Rome with
11,000 virgin companions.
She returned with them to
Cologne, where they were all
martyred.
Saint Ursula is shown here,
in yellow and holding a flag
with her emblem,
watching her
companions embark on the
return voyage.
The girls
carry bows and arrows, the
instruments of their
martyrdom.
The building
at the left is based on the
Tempietto di San Pietro in
Montorio, Rome.
The canvas was painted in
1641 for Fausto Poli,
who was made
a cardinal by Pope Urban
VIII in 1643

VELAZQUEZ, Diego
1599 - 1660
This is the only surviving
example of a female nude by
Velazquez.
The subject was rare in
Spain because it met with
the disapproval of the
Church.
Venus, the goddess of love,
was the most beautiful of
the goddesses,
and was
regarded as a
personification of female
beauty.
She is shown here with her
son Cupid, who holds up a
mirror
for her to look both at
herself and at the viewer.

Handel-Gloria in excelsis

Waterlilies -
Monet
The
Virgin on the Rocks -
Leonardo da Vinci
'The Virgin of the Rocks' seems not to
refer to the mystery of the
Immaculate Conception,
but depicts
the type of subject that
Leonardo might have painted
in his native Florence
where legends
concerning the young Saint
John the Baptist were
popular.
It
was twenty five years until
a painting of this subject
was finally placed in the
chapel.
In
the interim, Leonardo had
painted two versions of the
composition:
the
first (in the Louvre)
probably sold in the 1490s
to a private client after a
financial wrangle
with the
Confraternity; and a
replacement, - the painting
that now hangs in the
National Gallery
- that was
never finished despite some
help from his studio, but
was installed in the chapel
in 1508.

van Gogh 1889
The Battle of San Romano
UCCELLO, Paolo
about 1397 - 1475
This
brilliantly structured and
colourful painting depicts
part of the battle of San
Romano
that
was fought between Florence
and Siena in 1432.
The central
figure is Niccolo da Mauruzi
da Tolentino on his white
charger,
the
leader of the victorious
Florentine forces,
who is
identifiable by the motif of
'Knot of Solomon' on his
banner.
This
panel is one of a set of
three showing incidents from
the same battle.
The
other two are in the Louvre,
Paris, and the Uffizi,
Florence.
This
painting and its two
companion panels were
commissioned
by the
Bartolini Salimbeni family
in Florence sometime
between 1435
and 1460, only the Uffizi
panel is signed.
Lorenzo de'
Medici so coveted them that
he had them forcibly removed
to the Medici palace.
The
Adoration of the Kings
1510-15
GOSSAERT,
Jan Died: 1532
This
large picture was probably
painted as the altarpiece
of the Lady
Chapel at St Adrian's
Grammont, near Brussels.
The kneeling
King, Caspar, is probably a
portrait of Johannes de
Broeder,
who
became abbot there in 1506
and may have commissioned
the picture.
Behind him stands Melchior
with a retinue of
attendants. Balthazar is on
the left.
Further back an onlooker,
seen through a doorway, may
be a self portrait of the
artist.
The
dove, symbol of the Holy
Spirit, descends to the
infant Christ
from the
brilliant star in the sky,
and angels approach from
a great
distance through a series of
arches,
giving the scene a
spectacular sense of space
and depth.
Madonna of
the Pinks - Raphael
This
small devotional picture was
painted for Christian
contemplation;
its
original owner would have
held the painting in his or
her hand.
It
shows the
Virgin and Child
seated in a bedchamber (the
bed-curtain is looped
behind the
Virgin's head) with a view
of a sunny landscape seen
through a window.
They hand
flowers between them - pinks
which are symbols of
marriage
-
depicting the Virgin Mary as
not only the Mother but the
Bride of
Christ.

Falling in love with Ariadne
on sight, he leaps from his
chariot,
drawn by two
cheetahs, towards her.
Ariadne had been
abandoned on the Greek
island of Naxos by Theseus,
whose ship
is shown in the distance.
The picture shows
her initial
fear of Bacchus, but he
raised her to heaven
and
turned her into a
constellation, represented
by the stars above her head.
Belsazzar's Feast -
Rembrandt
Sunflowers -
Vincent van Gogh
This is one of four
paintings of sunflowers
dating from August and
September 1888.
Van Gogh
intended to decorate
Gauguin's room with these
paintings
in the
so-called Yellow House that
he rented in Arles in the
South of France.
He
and Gauguin worked there
together between October and
December 1888.
Van Gogh
wrote to his brother Theo in
August 1888, 'I am hard at
it,
painting with
the enthusiasm of a
Marseillais eating
bouillabaisse,
which won't
surprise you when you know
that what I'm at is the
painting of some sunflowers.
If I carry
out this idea there will be
a dozen panels.
So the whole
thing will be a symphony in
blue and yellow.
I am
working at it every morning
from sunrise on,
for
the flowers fade so quickly.
I am now on the fourth
picture of sunflowers.
This fourth
one is a bunch of 14 flowers
... it gives a singular
effect.'
The dying
flowers are built up with
thick brushstrokes
(impasto).
The impasto
evokes the texture of the
seed-heads.
Van Gogh
produced a replica of this
painting in January 1889,
and perhaps
another one later in the
year. The various versions
and replicas
remain much
debated among Van Gogh
scholars.
