​Vermeer's Daughter

CLICK TO PURCHASE
Picture

​​In this richly imagined novel based on the life of seventeenth-century painter Johannes Vermeer, Barbara Shoup evokes the artist’s world through the eyes of his favorite daughter.  Willful, dreamy, not-beautiful Carelina Vermeer is a trial to her wealthy Grandmother Thins, whose efforts to make her into a proper young lady are a constant source of tension in a large, loving, but quarrelsome family.  Then, early one summer morning, she follows her father to a house on the harbor where he is preparing to paint his masterpiece, “View of Delft,” and her real life begins.
