Luncheon of the Boating Party | 
pickThis is one of my favorite historical fiction novels - the author put a lot of research into who each actual person is in the painting, as well as many details about Renoir.
It‘s hard to see, but there is a #BeverageOnTheCover ! Lol. It‘s next to the woman‘s elbow on the table in the foreground. I thought this challenge was going to be a lot easier!

So my aunt was inspired by the #LitsyPostcardExchange (except she doesn't smartphone) so she sent me this card from D.C. after I sent her and my mum to the Phillips Collection. I want to thank you all for being an inspiration. @Tiffy_Reads especially for organizing this. If you're curious, tagged book is fiction about this painting.
This is one of my absolute favorite art historical fiction books!! #giveawayhistorical @Liberty
Three books from my TBR shelf that qualify for red, white and blue. Not really feeling the holiday today, but I am grateful that the freedom to own/borrow books and being able to read what I want still exists in this country (at least for now). #redwhiteblue #jubilantjuly #sizzlinsummerbooks
pickRead this last summer and thoroughly loved it. I want to spend my Sunday on a terrace overlooking the Siene. @RealLifeReading #bodyofwater #maybookflowers
Just realized I'm a day ahead. 😏 No wonder I couldn't find anybody's #bodyofwater post.
I meant for these to be all fiction but I threw in a few more nonfiction that I found. What I realized while looking for these is that I buy a bunch of fiction art books and don't read them! I I have four by Susan Vreeland and have not read one. And 3 are signed by her (to me! Lol). Must get that! #artrelatedbooks #seasonsreadings2016
I love all of Susan Vreeland's books. She really knows how to write art historical fiction. #artrelatedbooks.
Of course Joey had to get in the picture 😻
