the popular English language saying "packed like sardines",......遊行和焚燒沙丁魚雕像 "The Burial of the Sardine" by Francisco de Goya (circa 1812–1819)


[edit]

The manner in which sardines can be packed in a can has led to the popular English language saying "packed like sardines", which is used metaphorically to describe situations where people or objects are crowded closely together.[79]

'Sardines' is also the name of a children's game, where one person hides and each successive person who finds the hidden one packs into the same space until only one is left out, who becomes the next one to hide.[80]

Among the residents of the Mediterranean city of Marseille, the local tendency to exaggerate is linked to a folk tale about a sardine that supposedly blocked the city's port in the 18th century. It was actually blocked by a ship called the Sartine.

在流行文化中
沙丁魚裝在罐頭中的方式導致了流行的英語說法“像沙丁魚一樣包裝”,它被用來比喻人或物體緊密地擠在一起的情況。

「沙丁魚」也是一種兒童遊戲的名稱,其中一個人隱藏起來,找到隱藏的人的每個連續的人都擠進同一個空間,直到只剩下一個人,他成為下一個隱藏的人。 80]

在地中海城市馬賽的居民中,當地的誇張傾向與一個關於沙丁魚的民間故事有關,據說沙丁魚在 18 世紀堵塞了該市的港口。它實際上被一艘名為“薩丁號”的船擋住了。


The Burial of the Sardine, or Entierro de la Sardina in Spanish, is a celebration that marks the end of Carnival and the beginning of LentIt's a symbolic tradition that involves a parade and the burning of a sardine effigy to represent the purification of vices and the restoration of order. 

埋葬沙丁魚(西班牙語為 Entierro de la Sardina)是一個慶祝活動,標誌著狂歡節的結束和四旬齋的開始。這是一個象徵性的傳統,包括遊行和焚燒沙丁魚雕像,以代表淨化罪惡和恢復秩序。

🖼️ Symbolism and Details
In this work, Goya depicts a jubilant crowd adorned in masks and costumes, dancing and reveling as they proceed to the banks of the Manzanares River for the ceremonial burial of a sardine. The central figure is a darkly grinning "King of the Carnival," holding a banner that adds to the festive yet eerie atmosphere. The absence of the sardine itself in the painting shifts the focus to the participants' expressions and movements, highlighting the human element of the celebration. Goya's use of vibrant colors and dynamic composition conveys the energy and spontaneity of the scene, while the masked faces introduce an element of mystery and ambiguity. 象徵意義和細節
在這幅作品中,戈雅描繪了一群戴著面具和服裝的興高采烈的人群,一邊跳舞一邊狂歡,前往曼薩納雷斯河畔舉行沙丁魚的葬禮。中心人物是一位笑容滿面的“狂歡節之王”,他舉著橫幅,增添了節日而又詭異的氣氛。畫中沒有沙丁魚本身,將焦點轉移到參與者的表情和動作上,突出了慶祝活動的人性元素。戈雅使用鮮豔的色彩和動態的構圖傳達了場景的能量和自發性,而蒙面的臉則引入了神秘和模糊的元素。
