A pleasurable entertainment for some, the conduit for higher knowledge and self-actualization for others, reading has long been a force that empowers women to engage their dreams. She lounges in a garden, rifles through the shelves of a library, and steals a moment from her busy day to devour one more page. To all appearances, she is the most conventional of society women. But if we could get a glimpse of that book, that letter, we might be surprised.
This calendar celebrates the reading woman — her contentment, absorption, and quiet reveries — as well as the fondness that accomplished nineteenth- and twentieth-century painters demonstrated for depicting a woman lost in thought. Quotations by women about readers and reading accompany the images.
Twelve monthly grids and full-color artwork.
