What fun to read Susan Vreeland's novel about Renoir's painting, Luncheon of the Boating Party.! While it is a work of fiction, it is a very real work of art and her notes and interview at the back of the book, describe her many hours researching all the characters, events and places as well as Renoir's method and style of painting.
I found myself turning back and forth to the painting on the cover of the book as I read about Renoir's association with each of the models in his painting and also his absolute gusto for painting what he loved.
Now, to read more of her books.....
