Auvers-sur-Oise 奧維

L' Eglise

Actually, Van Gogh moved to Auvers-sur-Oise 2 months before he died in 1890. He painted quite a few great paintings during his short stay in Auvers-sur-Oise and because of him, Auvers-sur-Oise became unique and famous. I went to this little suburb town twice in order to experience and trace back the journey of Van Gogh by the time he was there. What you could see in Auvers-sur-Oise are about Van Gogh and impressionism. Chateau d'Auvers has the exhibition about the history of impressionism. Auberge Ravoux was a hotel where Van Gogh stayed before and it become a restaurant and tourists/fans could still take a look at the room of Van Gogh to know more about the life of this great artist in Auvers-sur-Oise.
事實上,梵谷搬到奧維是在他1890年死前二個月的事.他在奧維的短短二個月完成了不少膾炙人口的畫作,也因為如此,奧維這個小鎮變得不平凡.為了好好體會和回溯梵谷當年在奧維的旅程,我連續來這裡兩次.在奧維能看到的就是梵谷和印象派藝術.奧維城堡有印象派藝術歷史的展覽.哈霧旅店則是梵谷在奧維期間的落腳處.現在則成了餐廳,不過,在這裡,遊客和畫迷們可以看看梵谷住過的房屋也有機會更了解梵谷當初在奧維的生活.

L'Eglise was built in 12-13 century and it could be seen in Van Gogh's painting. However, the real colour of this church is different from what we could see in Van Gogh's painting. In addition, what we see in the painting is the back of the church. I tried to imagine the feeling while Van Gogh was painting this church while I was sitting at the stairs towards to it. The painting looks so peaceful and so warm which I could not believe and understand that Van Gogh would choose to commit suicide. However, maybe because of that, I felt a bit sorrow while walking all the way to the wheatfields.
奧維教堂建於12-13世紀並且可以在梵谷的畫裡看見.但是這座教堂的真實顏色並不像梵谷畫中那麼色彩繽紛.而且,梵谷畫的角度其實是教堂的背面.坐在通往教堂的石階上,我試著想像梵谷當時畫畫的心情.在畫裡,我看到的是溫馨平和,所以我不能理解為什麼梵谷最後選擇自殺.也或許是這個原因吧!走在往麥田的鄉間小路上的我,心情是有點心酸落寞的.
