Description

Seven women are captured in seven portraits by seven artists. Each portrait is a self-contained story about how it came to be, and as they intersect, the narrative unfolds into something new. The book takes us on a journey through time, from medieval Siena to 17th-century Amsterdam, and into modern-day London. Along the way, we meet women who find solace in books, and artists who capture their beauty on canvas. Through its richly textured pages, Girl Reading celebrates the power of reading and the artists who have been inspired by it.
