Colombine (1920)

By Hugh Mccrae

Colombine is a novel written by Hugh McCrae and published in 1920. The story is set in Paris and follows the life of a young Australian artist named Colin Colombine. Colin is a talented painter who has come to Paris to pursue his dreams of becoming a great artist. He falls in love with a beautiful French woman named Juliette, but their relationship is complicated by his own insecurities and the disapproval of her aristocratic family.As Colin struggles to make a name for himself in the art world, he becomes involved with a group of bohemian artists and writers who introduce him to the avant-garde movements of the time, such as cubism and surrealism. He also becomes embroiled in a love triangle with Juliette and another artist named Paul, which further complicates his life.Throughout the novel, McCrae explores themes of love, art, and identity, as well as the clash between traditional values and modernity. The book is notable for its vivid descriptions of Parisian life in the early 20th century, as well as its portrayal of the struggles and aspirations of young artists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
