泰戈尔在年逾六旬之后开始绘画，在13年左右的时间内创作了两三千幅作品，他的画具有很高的艺术价值，但其画作神秘晦涩的风格、幽暗混沌的色调，以及其中体现出来的痛苦、嘲笑、怀疑、挣扎，引发了对作品含义的争议，以及对泰戈尔诗歌与绘画孰优孰劣的论争。根据泰戈尔对艺术的理解和论述，诗歌与绘画均是其对世界认知的一种表现手段，二者都是泰戈尔充沛的创作生命力的体现。诗歌的优美，与画作中的痛苦并不矛盾。从整体来看，二者都是符合泰戈尔“和谐”与“美”之标准的、具有韵律的作品。%In his sixties,Rabindranath Tagore started to paint,and within 13 years he created more than 2000 pictures with great artistic value.The mystic and obscure style,the dark tone in chaos,as well as the pain,scoffs and doubt embodied in his paintings,aroused a lot of controversy on the meaning of the pictures,also on the judgment over the supremacy of his poetry or his pictures.According to his state-ments on‘what is Art’,I am inclined to the view that both poetry and paintings are Rabindranath’s meas-ures to express his understanding of the world,they are the direct representations of his plentiful creative power.The elegance of his poetry does not conflict with the pain in his pictures.Together as a whole,be-ing works in rhythm,they meet the standards of Rabindranath’s ‘harmony’and‘beauty’.
