蘇格蘭國家畫廊 - Scottish National Gallery

 

成立於1859年

坐落於愛丁堡市中心的土丘上。

館藏呈現蘇格蘭豐富的繪畫藝術史。

由文藝復興到後印象派的歐洲藝術。


西洋藝術始於宗教的题材,

之後的人為本的創作。

文藝復興後期17世紀

作品呈現大多以表現現實生活中的人物、

社會風氣作為繪畫主題。

此外,也有大自然、田園生活的畫作。

我個人較欣賞畫作中

大自然的景象。

然而人物與大自然和諧共融的美

更令人感動。


走過一間又一間畫室,

 月光下的海景」 

這幅畫作令人震撼。

畫作色調、筆觸是莫奈的作品嗎?

閲讀畫旁的描述:

 克勞德·莫奈(1840-1926

月光下的海景

1864年的油畫


夜晚港口的壯觀景色是

莫奈於19世紀60年代的

獨特作品。

描繪法國諾曼第海岸港口

勒阿弗爾附近的大海。


帆船、一個小漏斗,

月光下的船影⋯

莫奈以不尋常的技術

使用調色刀和刷子,

此畫作有古斯塔夫·庫爾貝Gustave Courbet 1819- 1877)法國現實主義畫派創始人的影響力。」


我看到莫內的天空、海港、船⋯

畫作呈現的不只是風景,

是他的內心深處。

景物、色澤

以朦朧的意象

呈現磅礡氣勢。


莫內的畫作

由單純繪畫

透過景物釋出內心的意境。


他的作品在當代被視為草稿,

然而在他而言是一種印象。

他的畫風極簡

卻完美呈現整體的美感。


莫內喜歡走向大自然寫生。

他的作品不斷成長、進化。

是他的內心世界與人生歷程。

分享世人

對於大自然的理解與愛。


告別了如此豐盛的藝術饗宴。

很珍貴的經歷

可以認識與感受

這些充滿能量的藝術作品。

Founded in 1859,

It is located on the mounds in downtown Edinburgh.

The museum's collection presents a rich history of painting and art in Scotland.

European art from the Renaissance to the post-Impressionism.


Western art begins with the subject of religion.

Later, human-based creation.

The 17th century of the late Renaissance,

most of the works are presented to express real-life characters and social atmosphere.

As the theme of painting.

In addition, there is also nature 

and pastoral life.

Personally, I appreciate the painting’s 

 scene of nature.

However, the beauty of harmony between the characters and nature

It's more touching.


Walked through one studio after another,

Seascape under the moonlight “

This painting is shocking.

Are the tone and brushstrokes of the painting Monet's works?

Read the description next to the picture:

Claude Monet (1840-1926)

The sea view under the moonlight

Oil painting in 1864


The view of the harbour at night,

Monet in the 1860s

Unique works.

Depict the port of the Normandy coast in France

The sea near Le Havre.

Sailboat, a small funnel,

The shadow of the boat in the moonlight...

Monet with unusual technology

Use a colour knife and a brush,

This painting is influence by Gustave Courbet (1819-1877), 

the founder of the French realist school of painting. “


I saw the sky, harbour, ship...

What the painting presents is not only the scenery.

It's deep in his heart.

Scenery, colour

with a hazy image 

it presents a majestic momentum.


Monet’s  paintings

From simple painting

release the inner artistic mood through the scenery.


His works are regarded as drafts in contemporary times.

However, it is an impression for him.

His painting style is minimalist,

but it perfectly presents the overall beauty.


Monet  likes to sketch in nature.

His works are constantly growing and evolving.

It is his inner world and life journey.

Share with the world -

understanding and love for nature.


Say goodbye to such a rich art feast.

A very precious experience.

We can recognise 

and feel these energetic works of art.

信心 - Confidence

印度詩人泰戈爾(1861 - 1941

詩詞充滿哲理與智慧。


他的《 用生命影響生命 》:

 把自己活成一道光,

因爲你不知道,

誰會藉着你的光,,

走出了黑暗。

請保持心中的善良,

因爲你不知道,

誰會藉着你的善良,

走出了絕望。

請保持你心中的信仰,

因爲你不知道,

誰會藉着你的信仰,

走出了迷茫。

請相信自己的力量,

因爲你不知道,

誰會因爲相信你,

開始相信了自己。


願我們每個人都能活成一束光,

綻放著所有的美好 !」


好美的一首詩。

鼓勵我們對自己要有信心,

相信我們可以成為更好的人。

心存善念。

常存「感恩的心」。


我們會感激生命中的遇見。


Indian poet Tagore (1861 - 1941)

His poems are full of philosophy 

and wisdom.


His 《 Life Influence Life 》

「  Live yourself as a light,
Because you don’t know, 
Who by thy light,
Out of darkness. 
Keep the goodness in your heart,
Because you don’t know,
Who would take advantage

 of your kindness,
Out of despair.
Keep faith in your heart,
Because you don’t know,
Who would take your faith,
Out of the confusion.
Trust in your own power,
Because you don’t know,
Who would believe in you,
I began to believe in myself.
Keep the confidence in your heart,
Because you don’t know,
There are people who believe 

in you,
I began to be confident and 

self-reliant,
Anytime anywhere 

under any circumstances. 」


What a beautiful poem.

Encourage us to have confidence in ourselves,

Believe that we can become better people.

Have good thoughts in our heart.

Always have a "grateful heart".


We will be grateful for the encounter in life.

《 天堂之約 》-《 Promise 》

這部韓國記錄片 -

導演閔丙勳與其子閔始友

自身的家庭真實記事。


九歲的始友每當想到離世的母親

不禁悲從中來。

 媽媽去了天堂,但她一直在你心中陪著你。」

父親以滿滿的愛安撫、引導孩子。

給予他強大的信念與力量,

陪他度過失去母親、

同時也療癒自己失去妻子的痛。

常鼓勵孩子祈禱、寫詩

以抒發想念母親的傷感。

協助他打開一扇窗,

看到光明與希望,

迎接溫暖的陽光。


父子倆相依為命。

在孩子面前堅強的爸爸

其實是把孤獨留給自己。

澎湃海浪瞭解他的心境。

小男孩何嘗不知父親隱忍的傷痛?


父子倆一起哭,一起笑。

小男孩的

 飄下的初雪猶如母親的微笑 

好淒美的詩篇,令人動容。


生日時感恩上天降雪。

感謝母親生他、養育他。

一首謝詩

「謝謝你今天

謝謝你明天

謝謝空氣

謝謝陽光

謝謝媽媽

謝謝爸爸

謝謝上帝

謝謝耶穌

謝謝始友

謝謝一切 


 今日有結束

永恆沒有結束

生命有終點

盼望沒有終點

道路有盡頭

愛永不止息

我等待著媽媽

我知道我在永恆會見到她 


終於父親帶著小男孩來到母親

葬身之處。

悲傷巳化為祝福與力量。

最愛的母親已成永恆。

小男孩堅強的面對生活。

記住與母親的約定:

他們會在天堂再相見的。


劇中許多埸景美不勝收。

雖是下雪的冬季,

暖暖的詩意卻上心頭。

是感人,有深度的電影。


This Korean documentary -

Director Byung-hun Min and his son Shiyou Min

the real record of their own family. 

Whenever the nine-year-old little boy thinks of his mother

he feels so sad.


"Mom went to heaven, but she has always been with you in your heart."

His father soothes and guides the child 

with full love,

give him strong faith and strength.

Accompany him through the loss of his mother.

At the same time, 

it also heals the pain of losing his wife.

He often encourage little boy to pray 

and write poems

to express the sadness of missing his mother.

Just like help him open a window,

seeing the light and hope,

and welcome the warm sunshine. 


They depend on each other for their lives.

He is a strong father in front of his child.

In fact, he leaves  loneliness to himself.

The surging waves understand his state of mind. 

How can the little boy not know the pain endured by his father?


The father and son cried and laughed together.

Little boy's poem

“ The first snow drifting down 

is like mom’s smile "

It's so touching.


Thank God for the snowfall on his birthday.

Thank his mother, for giving birth to him.

A poem of thanks

“ Thank you for today.

Thank you for tomorrow. 

Thank you, Air.

Thank you, Sunshine.

Thank you, mom.

Thank you, Dad.

Thank God.

Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Shiyou

Thank you for everything “


" Today is over.

Eternity never ends.

Life has an end.

Hope has no end.

The road has an end.

Love never stops.

I'm waiting for my mother. 

I know I will see her in eternity.


Finally, father took the little boy to the place where his mother was buried.

Sadness has become a blessing and strength.


His dearest mother has become eternal. 

The little boy faces life firmly.

Remember the promise with his mother :

They will meet again in heaven.


 A lot of scenery are so beautiful.

Although it is a snowy winter,

the warm poetry is in my heart.

It's a touching and profound movie.

水果 - Fruit

台灣一年四季出產許多美味水果。

有水果王國之譽稱。


有些水果是台灣僅有的特產。

柳丁、桂圓、蓮霧、

釋迦⋯


淡淡的香甜,

我最喜愛的水果 -

是走遍天下超級無敵的台灣柳丁。


初識釋迦(外表酷似佛首)是朋友介紹、

分享品嚐。不愧為人間美味、水果至寶。


桂圓也是稀世珍品。

也只有在台灣才能盡情享用。


玲瓏剔透的蓮霧

是最美的水果。

小時候喜歡看媽媽輕柔的

沖洗、切片,

然後搭配優雅的果盤。

家人歡聚享用水果的幸福時光

已經好遙遠。

卻是心中的永恆。


Taiwan produces many delicious fruits all year round.


It has the reputation of the fruit kingdom.


Some fruits are the only specialties in Taiwan.

Taiwan Orange, Longan, 

Wax apple ( bell-fruit )

Sugar Apple ( sweetsop )…


Faint sweetness, my favorite fruit -

it’s Taiwan's super invincible 

orange  who has travelled all over the world.


The first time I met Sugar Apple (sweetsop )

which looks like a Buddha's head,

was introduced and shared by a friend.  

It is the most delicious fruit  in the world.


Longan is also a rare treasure.

I can only enjoy it in Taiwan.


Exquisite Wax apple

It is the most beautiful fruit.

When I was a child, 

I liked to watch my mom’s gentle

rinse, slice, then match it with an elegant fruit plate.

The happy time of family gathering and enjoying fruit.

It's so far away.

But it is eternal in the heart.

心念 - Thoughts


以清淨心, 愛心,感恩心生活

是保養身體的好方法。

科學家以水實驗 :

將一杯透明水置於寫著 -

幸福、神、佛菩薩、愛、感恩⋯

無論何種語文的正面字句

的紙上片刻,

在零下五度將結冰時

由顯微鏡看到這些水都呈現

美好的結晶。

尤其是『愛』字上的水結晶最美。


水在人體中約有百分之七十的

比重,

周圍的環境與我們的思考言行

自然會與身體狀況息息相關。

心安理得,胸懷真誠純潔的愛,

全身自然充滿平和善美。

反之,惡念煩憂,

先受其害的是自己。


不善的心念,

嗔恨、惡意,

會產生壞的果報


日常生活中,常常凈化、

調整心念,

常存「感恩的心」

時時都會感到愉快與滿足!


心念慈悲善美,

能轉變境界,改變業力。

世界也可能因我們的修為

而有所改變。


Live with a pure heart, 

love and gratitude,

it’s  a good way to take care of your body.

Scientists experiment with water :

Put a glass of transparent water on the writing -

Happiness, God, Buddha, Bodhisattva, 

love, gratitude...

Positive words and sentences in any language

for a moment on the paper,

when it is about to freeze at minus five degrees

these waters can be seen from the microscope.

the crystallization of beauty.

Especially the water crystal 

on the word "love" is the most beautiful.


Water is about 70% of the human body.

Specific gravity,

The surrounding environment and our thoughts, words and deeds

naturally, it will be closely related to 

physical condition. 

Peace of mind, sincere and pure love in mind,

The whole body is naturally full of peace, goodness and beauty.

On the contrary, bad thoughts

and worries,

will be the first to suffer from it.


Negative mental states, 

anger and ill will, 

always give bad results.


We need to purify our mind 

and adjust our mood,

always harbor a grateful mind

we will always feel happy and content.


Compassion, kindness and beauty 

in the heart,

it can change the realm and change karma.

The world may also be changed 

because of our cultivation.
