About this book
In the early 20th century, as Europe grappled with the tensions of modernity and tradition, Pierre Louÿs crafted "Sanguines," a novel that delves into the intricate dance between art and desire. Centered around Bryaxis, an aging sculptor revered by his youthful apprentices, the narrative unfolds through vivid portrayals of beauty and sensuality. Louÿs masterfully intertwines themes of artistic legacy and youthful ambition, inviting readers to contemplate the nature of inspiration and the ephemeral quality of life. Ideal for students of literature and art history, "Sanguines" offers a profound exploration of the creative spirit, making it a compelling read for those passionate about the intersections of art and human experience.
