詹姆斯-迪索，布面油画，约1876年，英国泰特美术馆藏，86.6x109.5cm

James Tissot was a French painter and illustrator. He was a successful painter of Paris society before moving to London in 1871, after the fall of the Paris Commune. He became famous as a genre painter of fashionably dressed women shown in various scenes of everyday life.

詹姆斯-迪索是一名法国画家和插图画家。巴黎公社失败之后，他于1871年移居英国，在那之前他是巴黎上流社会一名成功的画家。作为一名风俗画家，他因描绘日常生活场景中衣着时尚的女性而成名。

James Tissot often painted a man with two women in order to explore the subtle nuances of flirtation and attraction through body language and facial expression. Tissot's work depicts two women with a young man in a flirtatious situation, but with a dangerous sensual undercurrent of moral uncertainty. The man is dressed plainly in the uniform of a junior naval officer. Each woman is wearing a fashionable gauzy white dress decorated with bows and ribbons, with a tightly fitting bodice over a corset and full skirts below the hips. Tissot focuses here on the boundaries of Victorian propriety and social convention, and their transgression. The languid pose of the nearest woman, and Tissot’s frank concentration on her fashionable hour-glass figure, inevitably led to the picture being criticized when it was first exhibited. The author Henry James dismissed it as "hard, vulgar and banal."

詹姆斯-迪索的画中经常出现一男两女，他通过描绘人物之间的肢体语言和面部表情来探索调情和真实吸引的微妙差别。这幅作品描绘了两个女人和一个年轻男人在一起调情的情景，有一种危险的、充满欲望的道德不确定感暗潮汹涌。男子穿着朴素的初级海军军官制服；每个女人都穿着时尚的薄纱白裙，上面装饰有蝴蝶结和缎带，上身穿着紧身胸衣，下面是长长的裙摆。迪索在画中专注于展现维多利亚时代的礼节和社会习俗的边界，更多的是对它们的逾越。他毫不掩饰地描绘了近侧女子慵懒的姿势和时髦的沙漏型身材，不可避免地导致这幅画在第一次展出时受到了批评。作家亨利·詹姆斯认为它生硬、粗俗且平庸。

It is so funny how vulgarity and banality changed in the last 150 years. Today we present his work thanks to Tate Britain.  : )

在过去的150年里，对粗俗和平庸的定义发生了多么有趣的变化啊。感谢英国泰特美术馆与我们分享今天的作品。 :)
