With cover art like this, how can you miss!

This book was lovely. I finished it last night, woke up feeling a little blue, and I realized it was because the book was over. That doesn't happen often. The story of Pierre Auguste Renoir and the eight weeks he spent in the summer of 1881 painting his famous Luncheon of the Boating Party. You come to love the characters, and it transports you to another time and place, one I was sorry to leave. Most likely, I'll share this book with PrettyPoodle's train station OBCZ. I'd like others to enjoy this book along with me.
