ABSTRACT

In the first decades of the seventeenth century, Hendrick Avercamp was among the first Dutch painters to prioritize local landscape subjects as a source of pictorial interest. Avercamp’s ice-skating scenes offer a vision of a prosperous society emerging in the Northern provinces in the midst of the Dutch Revolt against Spain. This paper argues that Avercamp’s work, rather than simply celebrating a quaint pastime, invites a more political reading. Avercamp’s use of nascent symbols of Dutch identity – particularly the tricolour flag – tie his paintings inextricably to the political cause of Dutch autonomy, and suggest the political consciousness of the citizens of the young Republic.

摘要

在十七世纪的前几十年中，亨德里克·阿弗坎普（Hendrick Avercamp）是最早的荷兰画家之一，他们优先考虑当地风景主题作为绘画兴趣的来源。阿弗坎普（Avercamp）的溜冰场面让人们看到了荷兰反抗西班牙期间北部省份中兴起的繁荣社会。本文认为，Avercamp的工作不仅是庆祝古朴的消遣，还需要更多的政治解读。阿弗坎普（Avercamp）使用荷兰身份的新生象征，尤其是三色旗，将他的画作与荷兰自治的政治原因密不可分，并暗示了年轻共和国公民的政治意识。
