Chef-d'oeuvre inconnu

"One of Balzac's most celebrated tales, The Unknown Masterpiece is the story of a painter who, depending on one's perspective, is either an abject failure or a transcendental genius - or both. This work, which has served as an inspiration to artists as various as Cezanne, Henry James, Picasso, and New Wave film director Jacques Rivette, is, in critic Dore Ashton's words, a "fable of modern art."". "Published here in an outstanding new translation by the poet Richard Howard, The Unknown Masterpiece appears, as Balzac intended, with Gambara, a grotesque and tragic novella about a composer undone by his dreams."--BOOK JACKET.
