description

http://schema.org/description

  • "Liefdesperikelen van de drie dochters van een zeventiende eeuwse Nederlandse schilder."
  • "Young Franscesca Visser dreams of becoming a Master Painter and travels to Delft to study with Vermeer. In Delft, Ludolf van Deventer, a wealthy patron, conspires to make the young woman his wife as well as throw the Netherlands into chaos."
  • "Francesca's father is a well-known painter in the bustling port city of Amsterdam; he is also a gambler. Though their household is in economic chaos, thankfully the lessons she learned in his studio have prepared her to study with Johannes Vermeer, the master of Delft. When she arrives to begin her apprenticeship, Francesca is stunned to find rules, written in her father's hand, insisting that she give up the freedoms she once enjoyed at home- including her friendship with Pieter van Doorne, a tulip merchant. Unaware of a terrible bargain her father has made against her future, Francesca pursues her growing affection for Pieter even as she learns to paint like Vermeer, in layers of light. As her talent blooms, "tulip mania "sweeps the land, and fortunes are being made on a single bulb. What seems like a boon for Pieter instead reveals the extent of the betrayal of Francesca's father. And as the two learn the true nature of the obstacles in their path, a patron of Francesca's father determines to do anything in his power to ensure she stays within the limits that have been set for her. -- From the Trade Paperback edition."
  • ""Francesca Visser wants to become a master artist in 17th-century Holland, and her family helps her overcome the machinations of Ludolf van Deventer, who tries to get her father in debt so that he can marry her"--NoveList."
