Selected Poems of Jules Breton

Arts & Literature

“Selected Poems of Jules Breton is a valuable introduction to the work of a French painter-poet adored by Vincent van Gogh and yet virtually unknown to English readers. Sharon Mooney’s masterful metrical translations and insightful commentary on this ‘poet with the pen as well as with the brush’ offer us an intriguing window into the intimate relationship between painting and poetry.”
