Description
Cyril Mann was a British artist of great promise, yet his struggles with mental health problems often overshadowed his innovative breakthroughs. This is the story of his life, as told by Renske van Slooten, the woman who fell in love with him and promised to dedicate her life to him as muse, model, and financial supporter. Their relationship was marked by both creative and financial struggles, set against the backdrop of 1960s London. Renske's insights into Cyril's painting technique are fascinating, and her account of their struggles offers a unique perspective on the challenges faced by artists. Through Renske's eyes, Cyril Mann's story is one of both brilliance and disappointment, a complex and enthralling tale that sheds light on the highs and lows of an artist's life.
