一幅火山画 -|- a volcanic painting

The painting takes its name from the woman you can see running to the left at the bottom of the painting, wearing some kind of armour.  Compared with everyone else, she looks like a giantess.  Mad Meg is running past the gaping mouth of hell.  Behind her, women have apparently started pillaging.  Male soldiers are entering the scene on the right and there are all kinds of bizarre monsters, strange creatures and weird structures.  The horizon appears to be on fire.  You couldn’t call this fascinating work light-hearted –chaotic would be closer to the mark.  When Fritz Mayer van den Bergh had just bought it, the great specialist Max Friedländer aptly called it ‘a volcanic painting’.


这幅画的名字来自一个女人，你可以看到在画的底部往左边跑，穿着某种盔甲。 和其他人相比，她看起来像个巨人。 疯梅格正从地狱的大嘴跑过。 在她身后，妇女们显然已经开始抢劫。 男士兵们正在进入右边的场景，那里有各种奇怪的怪物、奇怪的生物和奇怪的结构。 地平线似乎着火了。 你不能把这种迷人的工作称为轻松愉快的——混乱才是更接近目标的。 当弗里茨·梅尔·范登伯格买下它时，伟大的专家马克斯·Friedländer恰如其分地称之为“一幅火山画”。
