乌戈利诺和他的儿子们

Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux French

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 548

这件充满张力的浪漫主义作品的主题来自但丁《神曲·地狱篇》的第33 篇，他在其中描述到比萨的叛徒乌戈利诺·德拉·盖拉尔代斯卡伯爵和他的儿孙在1288年被囚禁，并且最终死于饥饿的故事。卡尔波描绘出这位极度痛苦的父亲正抗拒着他的孩子把自己的身体献上让他维持生命的请求。艺术家创作的这组极富想象力、饱受折磨的人物反映出他对米开朗基罗的无比尊敬，尤其是对梵蒂冈西斯廷教堂中的《最后的审判》（1536 – 41年）的尊崇，同时还反映出他不懈地追求以写实主义手法来表现有力的人体结构。
