Sinopsis

A quiet revolution stirs in Bastien Lepage-a delicate, piercing portrait of a young painter and the world that shapes him. An intimate study of art, ambition and the stubborn rhythms of rural life.This novella blends the immediacy of social realism with a painterly sensibility, offering a sharp-eyed exploration of nineteenth-century France at the turn of the fin de siècle. Crastre?s luminous, restrained prose invites literature students and art lovers alike to witness how desire, ingenuity and stubborn integrity become quiet acts of resistance. Though grounded in everyday detail, the book speaks with the gravity and texture of a literary classic, echoing the concerns that engaged Emile Zola and Gustave Flaubert, and inviting readers to consider art?s social place.It is also a work of historical significance: a window into a France where rural life, artistic ambition and urban aspiration collide, and where the ethics of representation are as crucial as the finished painting. Bastien Lepage rewards repeated readings with fresh insight into character, craft and the social fabric of the era.Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is Restored for today?s and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector?s item and a cultural treasure, ideal for devotees of historical fiction and literary classic lovers alike, and a meaningful companion for art historians, readers, and serious study alike.
