一天,在詹姆士·罗斯查尔德爵士家的宴会上,法国著名画家欧仁·德拉克罗瓦当场透露:在过去的一段时间里,他一直发愁为正在创作中的画寻找一位乞丐模特儿。
当他的目光停留在爵士脸上时,灵感突然闪现在脑中——他梦寐以求的模特儿就在眼前。
作为一名忠实的艺术爱好者,罗斯查尔德高兴地答应扮演一名乞丐。
第二天,在德拉克罗瓦的画室里,他将一件束腰外衣围在爵士肩上,让爵士手握一根短棍,并摆出一个造型,如同正在一座古罗马神庙前的阶梯上休息一样。
德拉克罗瓦离开画室时,他最得意的一名学生进来看到了罗斯查尔德的乞丐造型。
年轻人自然而然地认为这个乞丐是刚刚被带进画室,便带着同情的表情一声不吭地将一些钱塞在他手里。
罗斯查尔德只是道了声谢,便把钱放进兜里,那个学生出了画室。
后来,罗斯查尔德从画家那里得知,那个年轻人很有绘画天分,只是缺乏处世经验。
没过多久,那个年轻人便收到了一封信。
信中大意是,因为他的善良本性,将钱给了一个他认为是乞丐的人,而作为答谢,他将得到一万法郎,可以随时到罗斯查尔德的办公室领取。
这件事充分地说明了艺术的魅力,即使富有的人也不例外——画家的灵感,假扮的乞丐,以及一个可敬学生的善举。
德国教育家威廉·冯·洪堡说过:“尤其值得注意的是,当我们不过度担忧自己是否快乐,而是全身心地严格履行职责时,快乐自然就会来临。”
快乐的感觉不正像水流奔腾而来的波光吗?英国前首相格莱斯顿曾说:“我最大的快乐是在工作中得到的。
