Muse - Ruth Millington
£14.95
By Bookspeed
Far from posing silently and passively, muses have brought emotional support, intellectual energy, career-changing creativity and practical help to artists. From Leonardo da Vinci's studio to the covers of Vogue,
Birmingham-based art historian and critic Ruth Millington uncovers the remarkable role of muses in well-known and significant works. She delves into the real-life relationships that models have held with the artists who immortalised them, and exposes the influential and active part they have played, reframing the muse as an empowered agent of art.
