TIRANA (Reuters) - Albanian artist Saimir Strati has hammered tens of thousands of nails into a wooden board over the past 24 days to create a portrait of Leonardo da Vinci and the world‘s biggest nail mosaic.
阿尔巴尼亚艺术家塞梅·斯特拉提耗时24天、使用数万颗钉子在一张木板上创作出了一幅达芬奇肖像画，该画成为世界上最大的钉子镶嵌画。
"I can officially confirm that we have a new record for the largest nail mosaic of eight square metres," Guinness World Records adjudicator Scott Christie said late on Monday.
吉尼斯世界纪录评审官斯科特·克里斯蒂周一表示：“我确定，这张8平方米大的镶嵌画创造了新的纪录。”
The mosaic stood in the main hall of Tirana‘s pyramid-shaped culture center, exactly where a larger-than-life sculpture of the late Albanian dictator Enver Hoxha used to stand.
这幅镶嵌画被悬挂在阿尔巴尼亚首都地拉那市金字塔形状的文化中心主厅里，那儿曾矗立着阿尔巴尼亚已故领导人恩维尔·霍查的宏伟雕塑。
Large-headed nails shone in the light falling on the sides of Da Vinci‘s flowing grey beard. Smaller black tapestry nails created shadow below his eyes and chin. Three rows of yellow nails framed the portrait.
在这幅镶嵌画中，斯特拉提将闪闪发亮的大头钉做成达芬奇流畅的灰色胡须，较小的黑色钉子用在人物眼睛和下巴下方制造出阴影状，3排黄色钉子为这幅肖像加上了外框。
"I have lost count of the nails, but I think it was around 400 kilos (880 pounds) of nails. I have used different nails. The condition was they should be industrial nails and they are," Strati said.
斯特拉提说：“我没有计算过使用了多少钉子，但我想它们大概有400公斤重。我用了不同的钉子，这些钉子都是工业用钉。”
