Through her own personal experiences, Hustvedt is able to reveal things until now hidden in plain sight: an egglike detail in Vermeer's Woman with a Pearl Necklace and the many hidden self-portraits in Goya's series of drawings, Los Caprichos, as well as in his infamous painting The Third of May. Most importantly, these essays exhibit the passion, thrill, and sheer pleasure of bewilderment a work of art can produce&#8212;if you simply take the time to look. </P> 2738813 2005 Mysteries of the Rectangle: Essays on Painting total:28|5:13|4:9|3:6|2:0|1:0| 28 119 68 4 4 0 false false Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Tue Dec 23 09:20:09 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 23 11:33:57 -0800 2009 1
