图像的背后——象征主义画家莫罗作品中的两性意识分析

Behind the Pictures——An Analysis of Gender Awareness Reflected in the Works of Symbolist Painter Moreau

纵观19世纪法国画家莫罗创作历程中的重要作品,都具有一个鲜明的共同点:虽然题材多取自传统的神话、历史和文学作品,画面却体现出迥异于旧绘画的极为神秘晦涩的特征,常常充斥着迷一样的视觉符号,这也正是为什么他被冠名为"象征主义者"的原因。从画家营造的图像中的两性形象角度入手,分析图像背后隐藏着的社会心理和个人意识,以期了解得以造就莫罗艺术复杂性的文化构成。

The important pictures painted by the 19th century French painter Moreau share a distinctive feature： Although the subject matter often comes from traditional myth, history and literature, the pictures are quite different from the old paintings featuring mystery and obscurity and often filled with mysterious visual symbols. That is why Moreau is known as a ＂symbolist＂. The paper starts with the gender image reflected in his pictures, and analyzes social psychology and individual consciousness behind the nictures to understand the cultural elements that form the complexity of his paintings.
