It is generally thought that those who reproduce paintings have it easy because they work in air-conditioned comfort-no fiery kilns or toxic pottery glazes for these lucky chosen ones! With mere clicks of a computer mouse, colors are adjusted and the command is sent for an oversized printing machine to output a 150 x 230 centimeter reproduction virtually identical to the original painting.
一般認為，仿畫人不用苦守高溫的窯爐，也無須接觸有毒的陶釉，只需坐在冷氣房裡，動一下桌上的滑鼠，或是調整螢幕上的色彩明暗，再輕輕一按，就能輕鬆地從大型印表機裡輸出縱 150 公分、橫 230 公分，幾乎與古書畫一模一樣的複製畫，實在輕鬆。
