The Vanishing Man : In Pursuit of Velazquez ISBN: 9780099587040 Publication Date: 5 January 2017
The captivating and mysterious tale of a Victorian bookseller whose fate was changed forever by the great painter Velazquez
In 1845, a Reading bookseller named John Snare came across the dirt-blackened portrait of a prince at a country house auction. Suspecting that it might be a long-lost Velzquez, he bought the picture and set out to discover its strange history - a quest that led from fame to ruin and exile.
Fusing detection and biography, this book shows how and why great works of art can affect us, even to the point of mania. And on the trail of John Snare, Cumming makes a surprising discovery of her own. But most movingly, The Vanishing Man is an eloquent and passionate homage to the Spanish master Velzquez, bringing us closer to the creation and appreciation of his works than ever before.
