農陳館農夫銅像佇立56年見證農業發展  養護修補重獲新生

 

        台大農業陳列館早期是我國推展農業外交的窗口,位於農陳館大門的農夫銅像更被視為「迎賓人員」。這尊銅像佇立在農陳館前已56個年頭,近期工作人員特別為它清洗、上漆,希望煥然一新的農夫銅像能隨疫情解封,帶來新氣象。

        農陳館指出,這尊銅像自1964年開館就佇立於此,腳下更有著民初文豪胡適的題字「要怎麼收穫,就怎麼栽」,象徵為臺灣農業播下希望的種子,以及農夫勤奮踏實的精神,不少訪客都會停下腳步,與農夫銅像留影。

        然而經過56年歲月洗禮,銅像因長期陽光曝曬、雨水徑流,造成石材白化,並產生霉斑、銹污及油漆斑駁、剝落等歲月痕跡。因此農陳館工作人員趁疫情閉館期間,為農夫銅像進行石材美容、修整、清洗,以及重新粉刷上漆等養護工作。

        修補過後的銅像煥然一新,農陳館則說,將這尊意義重大的迎賓銅像見證台灣農業發展,現在重新包裝,等於翻閱了台灣農業發展史新的一頁,希望養護過後的銅像能夠隨著疫情趨緩、國內解封帶來新氣象,也邀請民眾疫情過後到此一遊,與全新的銅像合影紀念。

The Bronze Farmer Statue in the Agricultural Exhibition Hall has been renewed after maintenance

 

        In the early days, the Agricultural Exhibition Hall was a window for my country to promote agricultural diplomacy. The Bronze Farmer Statue has been in front of the Agriculture Exhibition Hall since 1964. It also gives visitors the first impression as the front-line welcoming staff, With the slogan beneath, which means ”As you sow, so will you reap.”, the statue was designed to be a symbol of Taiwanese agricultural spirit.

        Many visitors would stop and take photos with the bronze statue of the farmer. However, long-term sunlight exposure and rainwater runoff have caused the stone white bloom, mildew, rust, paint mottle, peeling and other traces of time. For this reason, we performed stone beauty repairs, cleaning, lacquering, and other maintenance repairs for the bronze statue of the farmer.

        The renewed bronze statue of the farmer also brings a new atmosphere. Everyone is welcome to take a photo with their footsteps as a souvenir.
