베들레헴의 밤 Night at Bethlehem

'Nacht über Bethlehem(베들레헴의 밤)’ - David Cawthorne 作
‘Nacht über Bethlehem(Night at Bethlehem)’ by David Cawthorne

David Cawthorne이라는 분은 입으로 그림을 그리시는 화가라 한다.
검푸른 하늘과 땅, 한 점 박혀있는 밝은 별, 그 별빛을 바라보며 걷는 이들 위에 비추어진 불빛... 왠지 그림 속의 신비로운 고요함에 한없이 머물고 싶은 마음이 든다. 무한히 펼쳐진 밤하늘 앞에서는 경외심마저 느껴진다. 목동들과 동방박사들이 별빛을 따라갔듯이 우리들도 각자의 별빛을 따라 한 걸음씩 나아가고 있는 것은 아닌지... 그림을 한없이 바라보며 생각에 잠기고 싶어진다.

David Cawthorne is a painter who paints pictures with his mouth.
Sky and earth in dark blue, a brightly-shining star in the night sky, lights shone on the people who are looking at the star... When I looked at the painting, I somehow felt like staying in this mysterious feeling of depth and silence. The vast scene of the night sky filled me with awe. As the shepherds and the magi followed the star in the Bible, isn't our life a journey of following the star that shines above our heads? Each of us has our own stars that lead us in our journeys... Again, looking at the painting, I feel like being lost in a deep thought.
