Two art critics devoted much of their lives to the study of a single painting, The Abyss of St. Sebastian by the sixteenth-century Netherlandish painter Hugo Beckenbauer. Their obsession with the painting was both rewarding and punishing - it brought them professional recognition, but it also caused a rift that shattered their once strong friendship. An intellectual, sometimes absurd journey from Oxford to Berlin through the art galleries of Europe. A grim and yet comic tale of exorbitant ambition and inevitable retribution.
