关于这幅画
The Drunken Couple is an oil-on-oak-panel painting by Jan Steen, painted c.1655–1665 and now in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. It depicts a drunken couple so inebriated that they are completely unaware of the intruders skulking in the background. The theme is reinforced by the print of an owl above their heads; in the 17th century the owl was a metaphor for being stupid and blind, reputedly not able to see in the daytime.
Adriaan van der Hoop donated it and the rest of his collection to the city of Amsterdam in 1854. It was initially assigned to the Museum van der Hoop before being moved to its present home on 30 June 1885.
博物馆的介绍
A man and woman are so drunk that they are unaware they are being robbed. Their foolishness is underscored by the print on the partition. It depicts an owl, considered a stupid creature in the 17th century. After all, it could not see by day, not even with a candle or eyeglasses. The drunken couple is thus just as blind as the owl, a message that survives in the English idiom ‘blind as a bat’.
