Join us to celebrate the launch for Edinburgh-based author Jane Anderson's new historical novel, The Paintress - a story spanning generations, following the life of forgotten artist Christina Robertson and her granddaughter Anna. The book explores the joys and traumas of love, ambition, and motherhood.
About the Book:
Anna grew up hearing stories from her grandmother of an ancestor artist's adventures in St. Petersburg. Now, in the Hermitage Museum, adult Anna stands in front of Christina Robertson’s gorgeous life-sized portraits of the Romanovs and she hopes the legend is true. Her research into the painter becomes a quest to honour her granny.
