（单词翻译）

He did an early drawing¹.

梵高年轻的时候也作了一些画，

There is about 12 of his early drawings² left, and there's one, of what a strange architectural³ feature⁴, it looks like a capital of a, of a church, or bank or something,

大概留下了12幅。其中有这样一幅画，描绘的是一个奇怪的建筑结构，看起来像是教堂的柱顶，又像是长梗或者是其他什么。

and no one really knew where it was, and I certainly didn't know where it was.Then you come here and realize that actually-it's a capital, the top of the Town Hall in Zundert across the road.

没有人知道它是什么，我当然也不知道。但是当你来到这里后，你就会意识到这是马路对面津德尔特市政厅的屋顶。

He must have sat there in his bedroom, looked straight out of the window, and seen this pilaster in front of him.

梵高一定曾坐在卧室里向外看，然后看到了这个柱顶。

So what it actually is-it's the first of the drawings that Vincent did of the view from his bedroom window.

因此，这实际上是梵高第一次画卧室外的景色。

This funny little pilaster and it's a habit that he kept up all his life.

多有趣的小柱顶啊！在梵高的一生中他一直保持这个画窗外风景的习惯。

Every room he had been staying, he will draw what outside of it, and he began here as everything did.

在他居住过的任何房间，他都会画出窗外的景色。这里便是这个习惯开始的地方，也是他人生开始的地方。
