标题

Strangford Apollo

斯特兰福德阿波罗

第1句

This marble statue depicts a youth standing in the conventional pose of a kouros.

这件大理石雕像中是一个年轻人，他以传统的古来斯造型站着。

第2句

Kouroi are stone male figures dating from the Archaic period of Greek art (about 600-480 BC).

古来斯是古希腊艺术（约公元前600年到公元前480年）中的男性石雕。

第3句

The characteristic pose is based on symmetry: the left and right sides mirror each other, and the legs are positioned so as to divide the bodyweight equally between front and back.

这个独特的姿势建立于对称的基础之上：左侧与右侧完全相同，双腿的这个造型是为了将体重平均分配在身前与身后。

第4句

The mouth is invariably fixed in a smile, probably a symbolic expression of the arete (excellence) of the person represented.

嘴部一如既往保持着微笑状态，这很可能传神地体现了所塑造人物的风貌。

第5句

It was thought that all kouroi represented the god Apollo, but though this may be true of some, others were simply grave markers.

过去人们认为 kouroi 是阿波罗的象征，不过虽然有些情况下确实如此，而其他情况下，这只是坟墓的标记而已。

第6句

The kouros was not intended as a realistic portrait of the deceased, but an idealized representation of youthful beauty and athleticism; values and virtues to which the dead laid claim.

塑造古来斯不是为了精准描绘死者，而是对死者健与美的一种完美体现，因为死者自认为自己本就具有完美的身材。

第7句

The figure is known as the Strangford Apollo after a previous owner, the sixth Viscount Strangford.

这件雕塑现在叫做斯特兰福德阿波罗，因为它之前的藏家是第六代斯特兰福德子爵。
