介绍（中）	黄色房间是惠斯勒最有成就的水彩画之一，紫色和黄色的和谐"安排"，可以追溯到他在关键的职业关头使用进步媒介的最实验时期。这幅画描绘了艺术家的主要模特和情妇莫德·富兰克林（Maud Franklin）（他为他的 60 多件作品摆姿势），为惠斯勒的个人和职业外籍生活提供了罕见的亲密一瞥。室内场景记录了这对夫妇位于切尔西泰特街 13 号的伦敦家庭工作室的客厅，以艺术家未来的传记作家约瑟夫·彭内尔（Joseph Pennell）描述为"黄色方案"进行了创新装饰，并充满了惠斯勒引领潮流的日本艺术品和美学运动设计系列。一位朋友形容泰特街的和谐内饰具有"站在鸡蛋里"的效果，这与惠斯勒最具争议的展览——1883年在伦敦美术协会举办的"白色和黄色安排"相呼应。在这些方面，《黄色房间》综合了惠斯勒在 1880 年代初期最具冒险精神的艺术和设计作品的许多方面——从他最喜欢的模特和缪斯女神"在家"的私人、非正式观点，到他同时期在纸上制作前卫作品，以及他为展示艺术而设计的定制空间的挑剔装饰。
介绍（英）	The Yellow Room is among Whistler’s most accomplished watercolors, a harmonious "arrangement" of violet and yellow, dating from his most experimental period of working with the progressive medium at a critical career juncture. A depiction of the artist’s principal model and mistress, Maud Franklin (who posed for more than 60 of his works), the picture offers a rare, intimate glimpse into Whistler’s personal and professional expatriate life. The interior scene documents the sitting room of the couple’s London home-studio at 13 Tite Street, in Chelsea, innovatively decorated in what the artist’s future biographer Joseph Pennell, described as a "scheme of yellow," and filled with Whistler’s trendsetting collection of Japanese objets d’art and Aesthetic Movement design. The harmonized interiors of Tite Street, which one friend described as having the effect of "standing inside an egg," echoed Whistler’s most controversial exhibition—the 1883 Arrangement in White and Yellow at London’s Fine Art Society. In these terms, The Yellow Room synthesizes many aspects of Whistler’s most adventurous art and design work in the early 1880s—from the private, informal view of his favorite model and muse "at home" to his contemporaneous production of avant-garde works on paper and his fastidious decoration of customized spaces for the display of art.
