Artist's Wives is a novel written by French author Alphonse Daudet, first published in 1890. The book tells the story of two women who are married to artists, and the challenges they face in their marriages. The first wife, Christine, is married to a successful painter named Claude Larcher, who is obsessed with his work and neglects his wife and children. The second wife, Charlotte, is married to a struggling sculptor named Jacques Brichanteau, who is unable to support his family and becomes increasingly bitter and resentful. The novel explores themes of love, marriage, and the role of art in society, as well as the struggles of women in the late 19th century. Daudet's vivid descriptions of the Parisian art scene and his nuanced portrayal of the characters make Artist's Wives a compelling read for anyone interested in French literature or the history of art.Illustrated By De Bieler, Myrbach, And Rossi.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
