如题所述

具体如下:

普鲁士国王腓特烈·威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有这样一段令人惊讶的历史。这件礼物就是琥珀屋,它之所以有这个名字,是因为造这间房子用了好几吨的琥珀。

选出来的琥珀色彩艳丽,呈现蜂蜜一样的黄褐色。琥珀屋的设计采用了当时流行的别致的建筑式样。它也是一件用金银珠宝装饰起来的珍品。一批国家最优秀的艺术家用了大约十年的时间才把它完成。

事实上,这个琥珀屋并不是作为礼物而建造的。它是为腓特烈一世的宫殿而设计(制作)的。然而,下一世普鲁士国王,腓特烈·威廉一世,这个琥珀屋的主人却决定不要它了。

在1716年,他把琥珀屋送给了彼得大帝。作为回赠,沙皇则送给他一队自己最好的士兵。

这样,琥珀屋就成了沙皇在圣彼得堡冬宫的一部分。这间琥珀屋长约四米,被用来接待重要来宾的小型会客室。

后来,叶卡捷琳娜二世派人把琥珀屋搬到圣彼得堡郊外她避暑的宫殿中。她叫她的工匠在原来设计的基础上增添了更多精细的装饰。

1770年,这间琥珀屋按照她的要求完成了。将近600支蜡烛照亮了这个房间,里面的镜子和图画就像金子一样闪闪发光。可悲的是,尽管琥珀屋被认为是世界上的奇迹之一,可是现在它却消失了。

1941年9月,纳粹德国的军队逼近圣彼得堡。这是在两国交战的时期。在纳粹分子到达夏宫之前,俄罗斯人只能把琥珀屋里一些家具和小件艺术品搬走。

可是琥珀屋本身却被一些纳粹分子偷偷地运走了。在不到两天的时间里,10万个部件装进了27个木箱。

毫无疑问,这些箱子后来被装上火车运往哥尼斯堡,当时德国在波罗的海边的一个城市。从那以后,琥珀屋的去处便成了一个谜。

近来,俄罗斯人和德国人已经在夏宫建起了一个新的琥珀屋。通过研究琥珀屋原来的照片,他们建造的心琥珀屋样子和旧的看起来非常像。

2003年,圣彼得堡人民就用它来庆祝该市建成300周年。

原文:

Frederick William I, king of Prussia, could never have imagined that his generous gifts to the Russian people would have such a surprising history. This gift is the amber room. It has this name because it used tons of amber to build the house.

The selected amber is bright in color and presents a yellowish brown like honey. The design of the Amber Room adopted the chic architectural style popular at that time. It is also a treasure decorated with gold and silver jewelry. It took a group of the country's best artists about ten years to finish it.

In fact, the amber room was not built as a gift. It was designed (made) for the palace of Frederick I. However, the next king of Prussia, Frederick William I, the owner of the amber room, decided not to use it.

In 1716, he gave the amber room to Peter the great. In return, the Czar gave him a team of his best soldiers.

In this way, the amber room became part of the Czar's Winter Palace in St. Petersburg. The amber room is about four meters long and is used as a small reception room for important guests.

Later, Ekaterina II sent people to move the amber room to her summer palace on the outskirts of St. Petersburg. She asked her craftsmen to add more fine decorations to the original design.

In 1770, the amber room was completed according to her request. Nearly 600 candles lit up the room, and the mirrors and pictures glittered like gold. Sadly, although the amber room is considered one of the wonders of the world, it has now disappeared.

In September 1941, Nazi German troops approached St. Petersburg. This is a period of war between the two countries. Before the Nazis arrived at the summer palace, the Russians had to remove some furniture and small works of art from the amber room.

But the amber room itself was secretly transported away by some Nazis. In less than two days, 100000 parts were packed into 27 wooden boxes.

There is no doubt that the boxes were later loaded on a train to Konigsberg, a city in Germany on the Baltic Sea. Since then, the whereabouts of the amber room has become a mystery.

Recently, Russians and Germans have built a new amber room in the summer palace. By studying the original photos of the amber room, the heart amber room they built looks very similar to the old one.

In 2003, the people of St. Petersburg used it to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the city.
