法国巴黎是世界文明的艺术之都,它不仅以秀丽的风景吸引着来自世界各地的人,更以其光彩夺目的艺术明珠另人心往神迷。这颗明珠就是louvre,卢浮宫-举世瞩目的艺术宝库…
louvre, national art museum of france and the palace in which it is housed, is located in paris, on the right bank of the seine river. the structure, until 1682 a residence of the kings of france, is one of the largest palaces in the world. it occupies the site of a 13th-century fortress. the building of the louvre was begun in 1546 in the reign of francis i, according to the plans of the french architect pierre lescot. additions were made to the structure during the reigns of almost every subsequent french monarch.
fortress:“堡垒”、“阵地”等意思。卢浮宫建造于13世纪的一个堡垒的旧址之上。 reign:“统治时期”。卢浮宫是于1546年弗郎西斯一世在位时开始修建的subsequent:“随后的”、“后来的”等意思。
monarch:“君主”、“帝王”。据法国建筑师pierre lescot的修建计划所载,francis 以后的每一位法国君主都对卢浮宫进行了增建。
藏品丰富的卢浮宫里,最著名的就是两件有关罗马神话的雕像:米罗的维纳斯与萨莫色雷斯的胜利女神,以及达芬奇的肖像画《蒙娜丽莎》。——二战中,这些稀世珍宝并没有遭到毁坏,因为它们被转移到了安全的地方……
Among its greatest treasures in the Louvre are two of the most famous sculptures of the acient world, the Victory of Samothrace and the Venus de Milo, and Leonardo's famous portrait, Mona Lisa.
The Louvre also holds works by the other Italian masters Raphael and Titian and paintings by the northern artists Peter Paul Rubens and Rembrandt. Protection of all the Louvre's priceless masterpieces during the two world wars was effected by their removal to secret depositories outside Paris.
The collections of the museum are administered by seven curatorial departments. The Department of Egyptian Antiquities was formed in 1826 to study and display the objects brought back to France during Napoleon's campaign in Egypt. The Department of Oriental Antiquities is famed for its collections of Mesopotamian and Islamic art. Other departments include Greek, Roman, and Etruscan antiquities and so on.
The museum publishes catalogs and brochures. In addition, it publishes the Revue de Louvre, which contains articles on new acquisitions and provides information on museum projects and on other French museums.
