Among her subjects are paintings by Rembrandt, Rousseau, Pollock, and Chagall, yet she equally explores a set of news photos from the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah.Prologue -- Comet -- Recollection of Tranquility -- The French Bed -- Recollection of Tranquility -- Bridges of Giverny -- Kehaya House -- Pumpkin Farm, Half Moon Bay -- Fugitive Effects -- The Temple of Poseidon -- Marsyas -- Fathers -- Front Page -- New York Times -- Roses on the Ceiling -- Dürer's Jerome -- Roses on the Ceiling -- Marble Boy -- Greek Stones -- Maiano -- Christine, Daughter of Immigrants -- The Moth -- The Bream -- Kayaks -- Pretty Rooms -- The Mower -- Trio -- Anniversary -- Rousseau -- At Night on the Terrace, Fiesole -- Fourth of July -- That Hat -- The Turtle -- Caravaggio -- Conscience -- Fig -- The Red Coat -- Lilies -- On Throwing a Fish in the Well -- Two at the Dock -- Goat Song -- The Red Coat -- Above the Town -- The Marsh -- The Glider -- No. 1 -- On a Bus to the Airport, Colorado -- Epilogue -- Faceborn digitalbooksengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
