Hardback. Condición: Good. When a world-famous artist begins to lose her eyesight and puts down her brushes, it is a tragedy. When she starts to paint again, it must surely be a miracle.

Never did he imagine that one day O Keeffe s request for help in preparing a canvas would lead to a two-year collaboration that would prove the most rewarding yet most painful of his life.…
