This series,The Times of the Day(colour lithograph, each 107.7cm ×39cm, 1899), is one of Alphonse Mucha’s decorative panels.
这组系列画作名为《四时》(彩色平版印刷,单板107.7厘米×39厘米,1899年),是阿尔丰斯·穆夏创作的装饰镶板作品。
[2]In this quartet (titled“Morning Awakening”,“Brightness of Day”,“Evening Contemplation”and“Night’s Rest”), Mucha combined fresh yet delicate colours with exuberant floral motifs.Four female figures represent the times of the day, each set in a natural environment with an intricate framing,reminiscent of a Gothic window.
[2]这组套画中的四幅单画分别名为:“朝起”“日作”“夕思”“夜憩”。作品中,穆夏将清新而细腻的色彩与丰富的花卉图案完美结合。组画中的四位女子代表一天的四个时段,每位身处一种自然环境中,每幅画都用复杂精细的框线围起,就像一扇哥特式窗户,令人浮想联翩。
