点评:We had never heard of this entirely unique gem until we started to look at places to visit in and around Tarrytown. Despite my almost complete lack of understanding and appreciation of modern art, Marc Chagall holds a very special place in my heart and artistic preferences. That is why I consider myself truly blessed to have been able to visit the Church of Pocantico Hills and see the biblical images come to life by the hand of this great artist. We would love to visit in better weather to see the sun flooding the church through these hauntingly beautiful windows.
We were very fortunate to meet the church's music director, a distinguished musician and educator, and a very very nice person. Besides telling us more about the church, she also pointed us in the direction of Sergey Rachmaninov's grave just a short drive from the church. Thank you very much, Katia, it was a great pleasure talking to you!
翻译:在开始寻找塔里敦及其周边地区的旅游景点之前,我们从未听说过这座独一无二的教堂。尽管我对现代艺术几乎一窍不通,也缺乏鉴赏力,但马克·夏加尔在我心中却占据着非常特殊的地位,深深影响着我的艺术品味。因此,能够参观波坎蒂科山教堂,亲眼目睹这位伟大艺术家笔下栩栩如生的圣经故事,我感到无比荣幸。我们很想在天气晴朗的时候再去一次,欣赏阳光透过教堂那些美得令人心醉的窗户洒进来的景象。
我们非常幸运地结识了教堂的音乐总监,她是一位杰出的音乐家和教育家,也是一位非常非常友善的人。除了向我们详细介绍教堂的情况外,她还告诉我们谢尔盖·拉赫玛尼诺夫的墓地就在教堂附近,开车不远就能到。卡蒂娅,非常感谢你,和你聊天真是太愉快了!
