刷白虽然经常让人遗憾地认为是一种隐藏,但不能指责它是虚假的。它显露出它自身,但并不企图改变它所覆盖的东西……用珍贵的石材装饰砖墙的表面需要给予尊重的评价。如果能够清楚理解大理石贴面并不伪装成或暗示成一整面大理石墙,这就并无坏处。
tWhitewash though often to be regretted as a concealment, is not to be blamed as a falsity. It shows itself for what it is, and asserts nothing of what is beneath it……Facing of brick with precious stone needs respectful judgment.If it be clearly understood that a marble facing does not pretend or imply a marble wall, there is no harm in i.
