介绍（中）	这块镀金的银色牌匾视觉丰富，叙事密集，工艺精湛，很可能是用来装饰盒子或橱柜的。这种贵金属牌匾是詹尼泽家族的特产。连续四代的纽伦堡金匠在十六世纪著名大师温策尔·詹尼策（1507/8–1585）的孙子克里斯托夫·詹尼策身上达到了技艺的巅峰。这幅浮雕结合了奥维德在公元8年出版的著名文本《变形记》中关于纳西斯的故事中的几集，被描绘成一个统一的绘画空间中的连续叙事。背景是纳西斯，正如奥维德第一次通过他的崇拜者、仙女埃科的眼睛看到的那样，埃科看到他在森林里猎鹿，举起角来，猎犬在追赶。Echo在不被注意的情况下跟随着Narcissus，他在中圈。在前景中，这位美丽的年轻人走近他那致命的水池。向下凝视，他迷上了自己的倒影，无法离开水面，注定会死于单恋，因为他没有回报别人的爱。
介绍（英）	Visually rich, narratively dense, and rendered with exquisite craftsmanship, this gilded silver plaque was likely meant to adorn a box or cabinet. Precious metal plaques of this kind were a specialty of the Jamnitzer family. Four consecutive generations of these Nuremburg goldsmiths reached the apex of their skill in Christoph Jamnitzer (1563–1618), grandson of famed sixteenth-century master Wenzel Jamnitzer (1507/8–1585). This relief combines several episodes from Ovid’s story of Narcissus from his famous text published in 8 A.D., the Metamorphoses, depicted as a continuous narrative within a unified pictorial space. In the background is Narcissus, as he is first described by Ovid seen through the eyes of his admirer, the nymph Echo, who sees him hunting deer in the forest with horn raised and hounds in pursuit. Echo, who follows Narcissus unnoticed, is in the midground. In the foreground, the beautiful youth approaches his fateful pool. Gazing down, he becomes infatuated with his own reflection and cannot leave the water’s side, doomed to die of unrequited love as punishment for not having reciprocated the love of others.
