We found these painted tiles several years ago, I don’t remember if it was in Assisi or in Urbino. They were in a ceramics shop, together with similar tiles for many other professions and crafts. As soon as we saw them we decided to get a pair, and they have hung outside our office ever since.
I especially like that both translators are reading with a smile on their faces… perhaps, they are happy to use a quill (no blue screen of death for them!), and work at a more sedate pace.
Happy St. Jerome’s Day, everyone!
Just beautiful! Also, a very interesting interpretation. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteThey are happy because it's very interesting job to be a translator!!!
ReplyDeleteDarn! I'm disappointed I missed this! Happy Translation day for next year!! Great to see some translators not tied down to the computer!
ReplyDeleteOhh am soo sorry I missed out the day. Anyways as you said everyday is translator’s day that’s why here I am wishing all my translators friend a really very happy day of translation. It is really good to see that still there are translators who have interest on writing their own translated documents and they have obtained a smile over their cheeks.
ReplyDeleteCool! Those guys really do look happy (must have been an easy translation). Now all we need is an International Proofreader Day - there is no such thing, is there?
