介绍（中）	十一世纪的圣博德里奥德贝兰加教堂在十二世纪初进行了改造，当时加泰罗尼亚的一个画家工作室被委托用壁画完全覆盖内部。圣博德里奥上层墙壁上的画作描绘了耶稣生活的场景，而下层则展示了狩猎场景和动物，包括下一个画廊的骆驼画。乍一看，上画和下画截然不同的主题似乎彼此无关，但中世纪的观众明白，下层画的象征意义和上层画的故事讲述是相辅相成的。圣博德里奥壁画的这一部分描绘了耶稣受到魔鬼的试探。正如马太福音所描述的，耶稣在旷野禁食四十天后，魔鬼首先命令他把石头变成面包，然后要求他从耶路撒冷的圣殿跳下来，最后把世界上所有的王国都赐给他。这里左边和中间只显示了前两个试探，而在右边，天使暗示了第三个诱惑的结果，其中耶稣由天使服侍。场景并排放置，以连环画的方式要求人物重复，表明时间的流逝。
介绍（英）	The eleventh-century church of San Baudelio de Berlanga received a makeover in the early twelfth century when a workshop of painters from Catalonia was commissioned to completely cover the interior with frescoes. The paintings on San Baudelio’s upper walls depict scenes from the life of Jesus, while the lower show hunting scenes and animals, including the painting of a camel in the next gallery. At first glance, the upper and lower paintings’ very different subjects might seem unrelated to each other, but medieval viewers understood that the lower paintings’ symbolism and the upper’s storytelling complemented each other. This section of the San Baudelio fresco depicts Jesus’s temptations by the devil. As described in the Gospel of Matthew, after Jesus fasted forty days in the desert, the devil first commands him to turn stones into bread, then demands he leap from the Temple in Jerusalem, and finally offers him all the kingdoms of the world. Only the first two temptations are shown here at left and center, while at right the angel alludes to the outcome of the third temptation, in which Jesus is ministered by angels. The scenes’ side-by-side placement, calling for figures’ repetition in the manner of a comic strip, indicates the passage of time.
