This time she focuses on late 19th- and 20th-century writers--Balzac, Zola, Proust, Huysmans, and Maupassant--through the lens of their passionate involvement with the fine arts. She delves into the crucial role that painters play as characters in their novels, which she pairs with an exploration of the profound influence that painting exercised on the novelists' techniques, offering an intimate view of the intertwined worlds of painters and writers at the time. Muhlstein's deftly chosen vignettes bring to life a portrait of the nineteenth century's tight-knit artistic community, where Cezanne and Zola befriended each other as boys and Balzac yearned for the approval of Delacroix. She leads the reader on a journey of spontaneous discovery as she explores how a great painting can open a mind and spark creative fire"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aFrench fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFrench fiction$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aArts in literature 606 $aArt in literature 606 $aArtists in literature 606 $aPainters in literature 606 $aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Literary$2bisacsh 606 $aART / History / Modern (late 19th Century to 1945)$2bisacsh 606 $aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Artists, Architects, Photographers$2bisacsh 615 0$aFrench fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFrench fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aArts in literature. 615 0$aArt in literature. 615 0$aArtists in literature. 615 0$aPainters in literature. 615 7$aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Literary. 615 7$aART / History / Modern (late 19th Century to 1945). 615 7$aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Artists, Architects, Photographers. 676 $a843.709357 686 $aBIO007000$aART015100$aBIO001000$2bisacsh 700 $aMuhlstein$b Anka$0133703 701 $aHunter$b Adriana$01079691 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162666403321 996 $aThe Pen and the Brush$92592371 997 $aUNINA
