The basis of the 1998 film by Agnes Merlet

This is a highly readable novel. The film followed it closely., althogh th enovel is told by Artemisia herself and begins in England with her father's death. The novel is worth reading on its own, however, as it makes clear some things which are are more enigmatic in the film. I have taught it along with the novels about Artemisia by Banti and Lapierre.
