Description:

A book can create a whole world in which to lose oneself; these paintings accomplish the same effect. The reading woman, as she is elegantly depicted in this book of postcards, is a beautiful enigma: she is herself an untold tale, a moment in time set free of its long, complex story. Absorbed, content, perhaps quietly thrilled, she turns the page to discover a new perspective, find a moment of comfort, or transform her life. This book of 30 postcards includes works by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Umberto Boccioni, Claude Monet, and other renowned artists'.
