About

Twenty-one-year-old Lewis Raycie about to embark on a Grand Tour, is advised by his father to seek out works of art for a gallery with their family name. However, when Lewis returns, the paintings he has selected are not what his father expected.

Art Fiction is a literary genre in which art is not solely an object, but is a reflection of what is human in all of us. Other examples are:

Girl with a Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier
Glimpses of Gauguin by Maryann D'Agincourt
To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
Printz by Maryann D'Agincourt
May Name is Asher Lev by Chaim Potok
Moon and Sixpence by Somerset Maugham
Shade and Light by Maryann D'Agincourt
The Shadow Catcher by Marianne Wiggins
The Real Thing by Henry James
The Gold Finch by Donna Tartt
The Art Forger by B.A. Shapiro
Journal of Eva Morelli by Maryann D'Agincourt
The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant
A Painter of Our Time by John Berger
The Passion of Artemisia by Susan Vreeland
