Excerpt from the original:
Rain, like silver-gray sticky spider silk, weaves a soft web and nets the whole autumn world. The sky is dark, too, like the roof of an old house covered with cobwebs. The pile of gray clouds in the sky is like white powder peeling off the roof. Under the cover of this old roof, everything looks extremely dull.
The green pomegranates, mulberries and grapevines in the garden only represent the prosperity of the past summer, but now they have become the remains of ancient Roman architecture, shivering in the rustling rain and recalling the glorious past.
The color of grass has turned into melancholy yellow, and fresh flowers can no longer be found underground; The delicate daffodils planted outside the dormitory wall hung their heads with tears in their eyes, lamenting their bad luck there. It was only two sunny days, and it was such a musty rainy day.
Only the sweet-scented osmanthus in the corner, the branches have been decorated with several precious buds as gold, carefully hidden under the green oval leaves, revealing a little hope of new life germination.
Zhang Ailing is regarded as the most thorough aesthetician in China in the 20th century. She pursued perfection and perfection all her life. Her works have an elegy-like sad aesthetic feeling, with ancient exquisite emotional appeal and modern lonely and desolate experience. Reading Autumn Rain is like going back to old Shanghai 20 years ago and listening to a melancholy little girl whispering by the Huangpu River.
Autumn rain is like sad music, barren and desolate. Another example is the same painting immersed in a gloomy background, which is beautiful, sad and gloomy, and can't help but remind people of her "life is a gorgeous robe, full of fleas." And we can also explore the inner light and darkness of a talented woman Zhang Ailing.
