In this illuminating collection of essays on art, Barnes turns his narrative gifts toward some of the most important paintings in the Western canon, eloquently voicing our reactions to these images—what they cause us to think and feel, and why. These essays are a true pleasure to read. / El grueso de los textos aquí reunidos se centra en la pintura que va del romanticismo y el realismo a los movimientos posimpresionistas, con artistas como Géricault, Delacroix, Courbet, Manet, Fantin-Latour, Cézanne, Degas, Odilon Redon, Bonnard, Edouard Vuillard, Félix Vallotton y Braque. Y en la parte final del libro se suman otros ensayos, sobre las paradojas visuales de Magritte, las esculturas blandas de Oldenburg, el crudo realismo de Lucien Freud y los colores de Howard Hodgkin. Un amplio y muy estimulante paseo por el arte moderno y contemporáneo de la mano de uno de los grandes escritores británicos actuales. Barnes aporta una mirada perspicaz, inteligencia y sensibilidad a raudales, sugestivas conexiones entre literatura y pintura, una grata ausencia de agobiantes corsés académicos y un contagioso entusiasmo.
