A self-portrait by Vincent Van Gogh was recently uncovered at the National Galleries of Scotland, hidden for more than a century on the back of a painting called Head of a Peasant Woman.
据《卫报》报道,近日,苏格兰国家美术馆在文森特•梵高的画作《农妇头像》的画布背后发现了另一幅梵高的自画像,长达一个多世纪之久后才被发现。


An independent expert on van Gogh said that, based on materials about the new discovery that the museum posted online, he felt confident that the hidden picture was a real self-portrait by the artist.
艺术历史家及梵高专家司吉拉•凡•霍格顿认为,根据美术馆公开的信息,可以肯定这幅画是真迹。


It's not clear yet whether it will be possible to uncover the hidden self-portrait, but that doesn't mean you can't see it.
虽然还不确定是否能将这幅隐藏的自画像取下来,但这并不意味着人们不能欣赏它。


An X-ray image of the ghostly portrait will be part of an upcoming exhibit, viewable using a special lightbox.
这幅幽灵般的自画像的X光图片将加入美术馆正在准备的展览,观众们可以通过一个特制的灯箱进行欣赏。


A vast majority of van Gogh's self-portraits were painted during his stay in Paris.
大多数梵高的自画像都是他在巴黎时期创作的。


He was short on money, so he reused canvases that he had used for other works in the Netherlands.
当时,他经济拮据,只能重复使用他在荷兰时的画布。


Because he also could not afford to hire models, he frequently turned the mirror on his own face.
同时,当时的梵高也雇不起模特,因而创作对象也常常是他自己。

A Texas legislators' probe of the Uvalde school shooting that left 21 dead blamed "systemic failures" and poor leadership for contributing to the death toll, a report released on Sunday found.
当地时间7月17日,得州当局发布的一份报告中指出,得克萨斯州议员对造成21人死亡的乌瓦尔德学校枪击案的调查将死亡人数归咎于“系统性失败”和领导不力。


The Texas House of Representatives committee investigation marked the most exhaustive attempt so far to determine why it took more than an hour for police and other officers to confront and kill the 18-year-old gunman at Robb Elementary School on May 24.
得克萨斯州众议院委员会为确定为什么警察和其他官员5月24日在罗布小学花了一个多小时才对抗并击毙了18岁的枪手,进行了迄今为止最详尽的努力。


The bottom line, the report found, is that "law enforcement responders failed to adhere to their active shooter training, and they failed to prioritize saving the lives of innocent victims over their own safety."
报告指出,底线是"执法人员未能坚持他们的积极的射击训练,他们未能将拯救无辜受害者的生命置于自身安全之上"。
