These are stories about beautiful women, stories of love, betrayal, rejection and loss. We start with a beautiful painting in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and follow the thread to discover their life, portraits and lovers. A gossip book, in fact, if we look for the truth. So what does this have to do with art? First, you will see how these portraits get a new dimension if you know the cast of characters. You end up getting attached, liking these women more and seeing them as friends, with frailties and problems of all sorts. You can also see how the skill of the painter showed more than physical likeness on the canvas.
This is a companion book to the Met Tours iPhone app.

This is in not a production of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, which is not associated with it in any way.
