"A collection of stories by artist and author Frederic Tuten"--
Frederic Tuten's journey begins in the Bronx, where his mixed heritage fuels his aspiration to become an artist. Yearning for the vibrant life of Paris, he immerses himself in painting and drawing. At just fifteen, he chooses to abandon high school for a bohemian lifestyle filled with salons and worldly influences. However, he discovers that profound lessons and inspiration await him in his own neighborhood, shaping his artistic identity and aspirations.
The story explores the intense passion and madness of Vincent van Gogh through the character of Ursula, a morphine-addicted photographer who embodies his fervor. After stepping through a crack in the wall of the Bad Cafi, she finds herself in modern-day New York, while van Gogh grapples with his isolation in 19th-century France. This unique narrative, illustrated with watercolors by Eric Fischl, shifts between time periods and perspectives, offering a deep and imaginative look into the intersection of art and life, capturing the struggles of a tormented artist.
It is 1890, Vincent Van Gogh is living out his last days painting intensely and loving obsessively a morphine-addicted 19-year-old photographer called Ursula. By a quirk of fate she finds herself time-tripping to 1990s New York, where she dreams of Van Gogh and the century she has left behind.
