Gemälde zieren die Wände. Paintings adorn the walls.

Im bürgerlichen Kulturbetrieb schmückt man sich zwar gern mit dem Hauch des Exotischen, der diese Gruppe umgibt und nimmt ihre Leistung auch anerkennend wahr, aber zu oft aus einem sozialromantischen oder wohlwollenden Blickwinkel heraus. [G] People in the bourgeois arts scene like to adorn themselves with the air of exoticism about this company, and they do appreciate its work, to be sure, but all too often from the angle of social romanticism or p.c. benevolence.
