Description

One of Pierre Michon’s most powerful works, this book imagines decisive moments in the lives of five artists of different times and places: Vincent van Gogh, Francisco Goya, Antoine Watteau, Claude Lorrain, and Lorentino, a little-remembered disciple of Piero della Francesca.   Michon focuses on particular moments when artist and model collide, whether that model is a person or a landscape, inner or outer.

In the five separate tales he evokes the full passion of the artist’s struggle to capture the world in images even as the world resists capture.

Each story is a small masterpiece that transcends national boundaries and earns its place among the essential works of world literature.
