读者没听过这个名字可以谅解。西玛出生于1459,是意大利文艺复兴全盛时期的画家。这一时期是艺术家辈出的时代,但竞争激烈。他曾在威尼斯作画,而乔瓦尼贝利尼已在威尼斯大放异彩。到1517 /18年西玛去世的时候,乔尔乔内和提香也成名了。这些艺术家的名声盖过了西玛。这是一个憾事。伯纳德贝伦森是威尼斯文艺复兴方面最有影响力的作家之一,他说:当时没有别的大师可以用独特的浅淡颜色以及幅宽把意大利风景画得如此流光溢彩。西玛对风景的描画影响了比较有名的同代人。现在巴黎的游客有了了解西玛的机会。卢森堡博物馆的画展《西玛达科内利亚诺:威尼斯文艺复兴时期的大师》是一场精彩的展览。
Cima painted in tempera and oil on wood. Such pictures are notoriously fragile, yet thisexhibition features 30 works, all of them on wood panels. The loans have come fromchurches, museums and private collectionsevidence of the diplomatic talents of GiovanniVilla, the show s curator. They include half-lengths of the Virgin and Child made for privatedevotion; full-sized portrayals of saints; and scenes from classical mythology, includingTheseus slaying a rather handsome minotaur. The smaller pictures are gripping, but thelarge altar paintings are the main attraction. Many hang on free-standing panels, and theirwarm, rich colours sing out in rooms of slate grey. The show is big enough to suggest theartist s range, but small enough to encourage private contemplation. Cima has capturedthe light and mood of the Veneto. Paris falls away and the visitor is transported to Venice.
