1 Swooping in on a shorter woman, the sailor kissed her.

《格尔尼卡》是西班牙艺术家巴勃罗·毕加索1937年为抗议轰炸西班牙北部一个小村庄而作的一幅巨型壁画。这幅大型壁画高3.49米，宽7.76米，展示了暴力和混乱给人和动物带来的苦难以及对建筑物的破坏。令人吃惊的是，整个壁画的色调由灰、黑、白组成，没有用鲜艳的红色来表现血腥的场面，但恐怖的景象却历历在目。画面上的人物并非用写实主义的画法来表现，而是采用立体派和抽象派的画法，但无辜平民惨遭屠杀的惨象却一目了然：一位母亲怀抱死婴，张嘴尖叫，她仰面朝天，伤心欲绝；一位士兵横尸地上，手里还紧握着一把断剑；另外三个人也都处于震惊和痛苦之中。画面中的动物——包括一匹受伤的马和一只哭泣的鸟——也都被描绘成这次屠杀的无辜受害者。毫无疑问，描绘这些扭曲变形的骇人慘象的目的就是让观众感到震惊。这种对人类悲苦惨状的描绘是对战争的残酷和荒谬的深刻控诉。

In the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang, the murals with “flying apsaras” are one of the most well-known artefacts. The flying apsaras in the Dunhuang Grotto Murals are a product of the intermixing of Indian and Chinese culture. In India, flying celestial beings called “flying apsaras” appear mostly in murals in Buddhist caves, while in the Chinese Daoist tradition, flying celestial beings are known as “flying immortals”. During the Wei, Jin, and Northern and Southern dynasties, when the introduction of Buddhism in China was at an early stage. People began to use the term “flying apsaras” to refer to the flying immortals in the murals. Later, with the development of Buddhism in China, the artistic images of Buddhist flying apsaras and Daoist flying immortals merged with each other. The flying apsaras in the Dunhuang Grotto Murals are a most ingenious creation of ancient Chinese artists, and a marvel in the history of world art.

Beethoven completely changed the course of Western music, in a number of ways. First, he introduced a new expressive style which became known as “romantic”. Second, he changed the form of orchestral music, especially the symphony. Third, he pushed the possibilities of solo instruments, such as the piano and the violin, to new limits. He wrote most of his greatest works when he was deaf.
