Captivating tale about artists, creativity, and an obsession about perfection.
The tale is constructed in a way that keeps one focused and unfolds according to its own internal logic.
I personally disliked the sacrifice of Poussin of his mistress in the egotistical and self serving interest of “art.” It was, however not a fault of the story but was due to the vividness of Balzac’s creation.
