Description

WINNER OF THE WRITERS' PRIZE (NON-FICTION CATEGORY)
SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN’S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION 2024

This memoir explores the life of painter Carel Fabritius, who died in a gunpowder explosion in Delft in 1654. The author examines Fabritius' limited body of work, including his famous painting The Goldfinch, and reflects on the relationship between art and personal experiences. Through her connection to his art, she delves into themes of loss, legacy, and the impact of tragedy on an artist's life and reputation.
