The Passion of Artemisia - Susan Vreeland

Descriere

Vreeland's novel The Girl in Hyacinth Blue traced a Vermeer painting through its owners, and her follow-up is also a moving celebration of the power of art. She presents a fictionalized version of the life of Artemisia Gentileschi, known for her contributions to Renaissance art and for the rape she suffered at the hands of her father's painting partner.
