摘要

微笑是一种复杂的人类面部表情，通常与喜悦有关。我们详细介绍了列奥纳多·达·芬奇在1516年至1516年间创作的《施洗者圣约翰》，这幅画描绘了一位微笑的圣徒，这幅画引发了多种解释和理论。通过讨论达芬奇的绘画作为科学媒介的概念，以及明暗和模糊这两种纯粹矛盾的绘画技巧，我们试图接近这幅画。明暗对比法描述的是光与影之间的强烈对比，而模糊技法则代表了另一种软化颜色之间过渡的绘画技巧。在John在空间中的定位语境下，画面中所呈现的闭合的微笑，可能是一种面对神圣的表情。

John the Baptist in Leonardo Da Vinci's Painting - What's in a Smile?

The smile is a complex human facial expression, most commonly associated with joy. We present a detailed view on Leonardo Da Vinci's painting of Saint John the Baptist, between 1516 to 1516, which illustrates a smiling saint, which has evoked multiple explanations and theories. Discussing Da Vinci's concept of painting as science media and the two merely contradictory painting techniques chiaroscuro and sfumato, we attempt to approach this picture. Chiaroscuro is describing the strong contrasts between light and shadow, while sfumato represents another painting technique for softening the transition between colors. In the context of the positioning of John in the space, the closed smile shown in the picture, is possibly an expression of facing the Sacred.
