“他们在苦熬,如同吃土豆的家人,围坐在一起,沉默地吞咽他们的艰涩与饥饿,忍让着彼此的自暴自弃,晦暗中相互取暖,并痴心向往着光明的高尚的生活。”这是印在《六人晚餐》腰封上的一段话。梵高的《吃土豆的人》描绘了在昏暗的油灯下,围坐在狭窄的餐桌旁吃土豆的一家人,他们面容憔悴,瘦骨嶙峋,在阴冷的晚上彼此谦让着乏味单调的晚餐。 “They are suffering, like eating potatoes family, sitting together, silently swallowing their hardship and hunger, forbearing to each other’s self-defeating, dull and warm each other, and fondly aspire to a bright and noble life.” Is printed on the “six-man dinner,” the girdle of a passage. Van Gogh’s Potato Eaters depicts a family of potatoes sitting around a narrow table under a dimly lit lamp, gaunt and skinny, humiliating each other on a dull evening of boring evening meals.
