介绍（中）	这种陶瓷容器是一种称为药房罐的类型，基于这种形状的容器在药物储存中的常见用途。圆柱体的一半装饰着一个站立的女性人物，穿着长袍，她的左臂夹在衣服的褶皱中。她举起的右手拿着一个类似树叶的小东西，也许是在暗示罐子里的药用物品。容器的另一侧描绘了一棵风格化的树。这个罐子可能是在西班牙地中海沿岸的瓦伦西亚市附近制造的，瓦伦西亚市以这种被称为光泽器的陶瓷器皿而闻名。这种光泽器皿技术首先在伊拉克发展起来，穿过伊斯兰世界到达伊比利亚半岛，在中世纪有大量的穆斯林人口。最终，这些专业知识在穆斯林和基督教艺术家之间共享，他们经常在陶瓷作坊并肩工作。这个罐子提供了跨信仰互动的有力证据，不仅通过技术，而且通过装饰一半容器的树木图案。所谓的"生命树"在中世纪后期对穆斯林和基督徒都具有精神意义，并证明了两种信仰共享的艺术语言。
介绍（英）	This ceramic vessel is of a type known as a pharmacy jar, based on the common use of vessels of this shape in pharmaceutical storage. One half of the cylinder is decorated with a standing female figure dressed in a long robe, her left arm caught in the folds of her garment. Her raised right hand holds a small object resembling a leaf, perhaps alluding to the medicinal contents of the jar. The opposite side of the vessel depicts a stylized tree. The jar was likely made near the city of Valencia on Spain’s Mediterranean coast, which was celebrated for this type of ceramic ware, known as lusterware. First developed in Iraq, the lusterware technique made its way across the Islamic world to the Iberian Peninsula, which during the Middle Ages had a substantial Muslim population. Eventually, this specialized knowledge was shared between Muslim and Christian artists, who often worked side-by-side in ceramic workshops. This jar provides strong evidence of interfaith interaction, not only through the technique, but also through the tree motif decorating one half of the vessel. The so-called "tree of life" had spiritual significance for both Muslims and Christians during the later Middle Ages and testifies to the artistic language shared by the two faiths.
