【羅馬】Rothko 展覽。乾隆皇帝展覽

到座落在Repubblica站的Palazzo Esposizioni看了Rothko的展覽, 除了展覽了他後期廣為人知的方框作品，也有展示他早期風格完全不同的作品。真很難想像簡單的方方框框會變成如此有名的藝術作品

第二天我們去看放在紫禁城內的三百多件和乾隆皇帝有關的展覽。沒有到過紫禁城的我們真的很喜歡這個展覽。現在V先生知道什麼是八旗子弟，看過乾隆的真跡，玉如意，還有當時乾隆很喜愛的意大利籍畫師Giuseppe Castiglione的作品。一個洋人用西洋圖工繪畫乾隆一家上下過年的景象，真的很特別，也特顯了這個展覽在意大行擧行的意義。

Giuseppe Castiglione, traditional Chinese: 郎世寧; (July 19, 1688 – July 17, 1766) was anItalian painter, court artist and Jesuit missionary to China.

Born in Milan's San Macellino district, Castiglione studied painting in Italy with Carlo Cornara of the renowned Botteghe degli Stampator painting studio. In 1709, he became a Jesuit and in 1715, he went to China as a missionary. His skill as an artist was appreciated by the Emperor Qianlong and Castiglione spent many years painting various subjects. His style was a unique blend of European painting with Chinese subjects and themes. He was also in charge of designing the Western-Style Palaces in the imperial gardens of the Old Summer Palace.

While in China, Castiglione took the name Lang Shining (郎世寧). Apart from his paintings Castiglione also designed a summer palace for Emperor Qianlong. He died in Beijing.

我不懂看意大利的電視節目，最多只愛看音樂節目，所以話音樂真是世界語言。我愛古典音樂，更愛看日劇“交響情人夢“，我用這個假期KO了這套劇，雖然沒有英文字幕但Ｍr V也陪我看罷整套DVD, 由再一次證明音樂是無份國界的。
