I found this at a local coffee shop, and since it seems that quite a few people want to read it, went ahead and brought it home to register.

I was at Heine Brothers earlier today and saw this above the fireplace. I'd wanted to read it for a while so I grabbed it to read in the New Year (and dropped a book of my own off as I didn't release all the books I brought on my Christmas travels!)

Thank you and happy new year!

Finally got around to reading this- ironically I picked it up to read in 2010 and I finally got to it in the waning days of 2011! (Yes, I am a little behind!)

Really enjoyed this book- I do love reading stories about artists and art as it is so far removed from my day to day life. I also love books that have individual stories that are connected in some way - this time through the painting.

Will hold onto this for a VBB that I am waiting on so hopefully it will travel soon.

1/11/12 Book was requested by bookstogive. Will mail out over the weekend.

I selected this one from the General Lit VBB, Thanks for offering it! I am really looking forward to reading it very soon and then it can continue it's travels.

This was a good little book, sorry it took so long to get to it.
The story follows the history of a painting believed to be by Vermeer starting with the current owner going back to the painting being conceived. I have read a few books about artists including Girl with a Pearl Earring which is a confirmed painting by Vermeer.

This one is now ready to travel onward.

Arrived safely. Thanks for sharing!

Journal Entry 10 by wingjumpinginwing at Vancouver, British Columbia Canada on Friday, November 11, 2022
I loved the premise of this book. It was so interesting to see how each person came to have the painting over the centuries. Thanks for sharing!

Waiting for its next reader at this Little Free Library.
