Anna Matveeva - prose writer, finalist of the Big Book and National Bestseller awards; author of the books The Enviable Feeling of Vera Stenina, The Nine Nineties, Lolotta and Other Parisian Stories, Hidden Rivers, and others. In the book "Picture Girls" Anna Matveeva refers to the fate of the models and muses of famous artists.
Who were the women who look at us from the paintings of Botticelli and Bryullov, Matisse and Dali, Rubens and Manet? They lived in different centuries, had different origins and such dissimilar characters; some of them did not want to be inferior in skill to the great ones who painted their portraits, while for some it was enough just to be near them.
“My heroines are not always models in the full sense of the word, they are girls from pictures, “picture girls”. The fate of each of them is inextricably linked with the fate of the master, and when talking about Fornarin, one cannot but talk about Raphael, and the story of Olga Khokhlova will not do without mentioning Picasso; Botticelli could become a completely different artist without his Simonetta, Rembrandt without Saskia, and Modigliani without Jeanne.
