Title: Penned by gold
Product review: This is the book that inspired Manet and so many others, it is said to have been the match that lit the Impressionist movement. The writing is so warm and golden it melts your soul. One quote about the painter Watteau makes me think of Steven Spielberg the director: "An enchantment, a thousand enchantments arose, upon wings, from the whims of his brain, from the humours of his artistic practice, from the absolute originality of his genius."One does not read this book, one floats with it on a cloud of beautiful nuances. This is a lovely translation to English of an even more lovely and lyrical French.
