★美國總統國家與社會貢獻獎金獎得主★ 韓秀　傾情鉅獻 從一畫成名驚天下，到窮愁潦倒無人問 他是時代的孤勇者，更是西方藝術史的先行者 林布蘭（Rembrandt, 1606-1669）生於荷蘭萊登，以色彩鮮明的版畫與精湛的銅版蝕刻技術聞名於世，為巴洛克時期最具代表性的藝術家之一。早期善於以「明暗對照法」繪製栩栩如生的肖像，例如《杜爾普教授的解剖課》，他也因此畫一舉成為當時阿姆斯特丹最富有的人之一。 但好景不長，因為受妻兒接連過世的打擊，1640年之後，林布蘭的畫筆不再濃墨重彩，他的畫布變得灰暗，人物形象追求自然、更加忠於原貌──但這樣的轉變卻也讓他從此跌落畫壇。 荷蘭的風帆正在黃金時代的浪潮中駛向全世界，林布蘭的人生卻陷入了暗無星月的夜晚。因為不符合審美潮流，幾乎沒有人再肯委託他作畫，財務狀況每下愈況；到了人生的終章，林布蘭甚至必須割愛珍貴的異國收藏、不斷遷居，過世時幾乎可說是身無分文、窮愁潦倒…… ═════ 林布蘭畫布下的故事 ═════ ♦《夜巡》（The Night Watch） ──世界三大油畫之一，為何當年會被裁剪、焚毀、謾罵百年？ ♦《猶太新娘》（The Jewish Bride） ──讓梵谷為之瘋狂的詩意之作，訴說林布蘭一生最重要的女人 ♦《杜爾普教授的解剖課》（The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp） ──杜爾普教授是誰？一窺十七世紀荷蘭的醫學片段 ♦《克勞迪‧基維里斯密謀起義》（The Conspiracy of the Batavians under Claudius Civilis） ──只餘下草圖的偉大畫作，究竟是得罪了何人？ ♦《雅各與天使角鬥》（Jacob Wrestling with the Ange） ──無比經典的聖經故事，也是林布蘭一生心志的寫照…… 「我的身心為之一震，彷彿有一塊巧奪天工的色彩撲面而來。」 「當沉溺於心中的夢想時，他失去了一切，但同時，他也得到了一切。」 「終其一生他都生活在一個虛幻的世界中，這個世界有著無限的美麗和完滿，以至於世人只能聳聳肩，帶著惡意與嫉妒的嗤笑，不予理睬
