The Picture of Dorian Gray — Page 7

English → Korean CHAPTER I. Level 7/10

"Being natural is simply a pose, and the most irritating pose I know," cried Lord Henry, laughing; and the two young men went out into the garden together and ensconced themselves on a long bamboo seat that stood in the shade of a tall laurel bush.

"자연스럽게 행동한다는 것은 그저 하나의 포즈일 뿐이야, 그것도 내가 아는 가장 짜증스러운 포즈지," 헨리 경이 웃으며 외쳤다. 그리고 두 젊은이는 함께 정원으로 나가 키 큰 월계수 덤불 그늘 아래 놓인 긴 대나무 의자에 자리를 잡았다.

The sunlight slipped over the polished leaves.

햇빛이 윤기 나는 잎사귀들 위로 미끄러져 내렸다.

In the grass, white daisies were tremulous.

풀밭에는 흰 데이지꽃들이 떨리듯 흔들리고 있었다.

After a pause, Lord Henry pulled out his watch.

잠시 침묵이 흐른 후, 헨리 경은 시계를 꺼냈다.

"I am afraid I must be going, Basil," he murmured, "and before I go, I insist on your answering a question I put to you some time ago."

"이제 가봐야 할 것 같아, 바질," 그가 중얼거렸다. "그런데 가기 전에, 내가 얼마 전에 했던 질문에 꼭 대답해 줘야겠어."

"What is that?" said the painter, keeping his eyes fixed on the ground.

"그게 뭔데?" 화가가 시선을 땅에 고정한 채 말했다.

"You know quite well."

"자네도 잘 알잖아."

"I do not, Harry."

"모르겠는데, 해리."

"Well, I will tell you what it is.

"그럼, 내가 말해주지.

I want you to explain to me why you won't exhibit Dorian Gray's picture.

도리언 그레이의 초상화를 왜 전시하지 않으려는지 설명해 줘.

I want the real reason."

진짜 이유를 듣고 싶어."

"I told you the real reason."

"진짜 이유를 말했잖아."

"No, you did not.

"아니, 그러지 않았어.

You said it was because there was too much of yourself in it.

그림 속에 자네 자신이 너무 많이 담겨 있기 때문이라고 했잖아.

Now, that is childish."

그건 유치한 소리야."

"Harry," said Basil Hallward, looking him straight in the face, "every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.

"해리," 바질 홀워드가 그의 얼굴을 똑바로 바라보며 말했다. "감정을 담아 그린 모든 초상화는 모델의 초상화가 아니라 화가 자신의 초상화야.

The sitter is merely the accident, the occasion.

모델은 그저 우연한 계기, 하나의 기회에 불과해.

It is not he who is revealed by the painter; it is rather the painter who, on the coloured canvas, reveals himself.

화가에 의해 드러나는 것은 모델이 아니야. 오히려 색칠된 캔버스 위에서 자기 자신을 드러내는 것은 바로 화가 자신이지.
