近日，加纳一名1岁零152天的男童被吉尼斯世界纪录认定为世界最年轻男画家。这位名叫Ace-Liam的男童从去年12月到今年1月初在加纳首都阿克拉的科学技术博物馆展出了自己的画作。
Ace-Liam Nana Sam Ankrah was recognised as the world’s youngest male painter last Monday. He made this achievement at one year and 152 days. The mother, Chantelle Kuukua Eghan, shared her pride in her son’s artistic ability and hopes he can take the art world by storm.
Ace-Liam Nana Sam Ankrah上周一被公认为世界上最年轻的男画家。他在1年零152天的年龄完成了这一壮举。这位名叫Chantelle Kuukua Eghan的母亲为儿子的艺术才能感到骄傲，并希望他能在艺术界掀起一股风暴。
“When I opened the email I just broke down,” Ms Eghan said. To break the record, Guinness World Records (GWR) said Ace-Liam needed to be part of a professional exhibition (专业展览) that was open to the public and sell his work. It added that the work needed to be done to a professional standard and to be proved that it was done on his own.
“当我打开邮件时，我崩溃了，”埃根说。吉尼斯世界纪录表示，为了打破纪录，Ace-Liam需要参加一个向公众开放的专业展览，并出售他的作品。它补充说，这项工作需要以专业标准完成，并证明这是他自己完成的。
Ace-Liam’s work was exhibited at the Museum of Science and Technology in the capital Accra, from last December to early January. He sold nine of the 10 pieces. He was even commissioned (委托) by the First Lady, Rebecca Akufo-Addo, who attended the exhibition. The boy, who turns two in July, sold another 6 paintings later.
从去年12月到今年1月初，Ace-Liam的作品在首都阿克拉的科学技术博物馆展出。他卖出了10件画作中的9件。他甚至受到了第一夫人丽贝卡·阿库福-阿多的委托，她也参加了这次展览。这个7月份就满两岁的男孩后来又卖出了6幅画。
But Ms Eghan said he “crawled (爬)” into it at the beginning. She was working on a piece she’d been commissioned to do for Miss Universe 2023. Being a single mother, she needed to take care of six-month-old Ace-Liam while she worked. “How do I balance between painting and raising a kid?” she thought to herself. Then she spread out a canvas (画布) on the floor, put some paint on it and let him play with it. “He was so interested in the bright colours,” she said warmly.
但 Eghan女士说，他一开始是“爬”进去的。她当时正在做一件受委托为2023年环球小姐做的作品。作为一个单身母亲，她需要在工作的同时照顾6个月大的Ace-Liam。“我如何在绘画和抚养孩子之间取得平衡?”她想。然后她在地板上铺开一块画布，涂上一些颜料，让他玩。“他对鲜艳的颜色很感兴趣，”她热情地说。
“His paintings show someone who is intrigued about discovering things,” Ms Eghan said. She hopes her son will follow in the footsteps of Ghanaian artist Amaoko Boafo . “He has been able to put Ghana on the map when it comes to art,” she said.
“他的画显示出一个对发现事物充满好奇的人，”Eghan女士说。她希望她的儿子能追随加纳艺术家Amaoko Boafo的脚步。她说:“在艺术领域，他让加纳声名鹊起。”
