This book is devoted to Proustian aesthetics and the vital influence of Montesquiou, the Goncourt, Ruskin. It highlights the functions of painting in la Recherche. Proust shifts away from the ekphrasis and diverts the paintings (Giotto, Carpaccio, Titian, etc.) to submit them entirely to his narrative.
