Au cœur de l'art baroque, "La Madeleine repentante" de Georges de La Tour se dresse comme une œuvre emblématique, captivant l'observateur par sa profondeur émotionnelle et sa maîtrise technique. Cette peinture, réalisée au XVIIe siècle, met en lumière la figure de Marie Madeleine, symbole de la rédemption et de la pénitence. L'œuvre se distingue par son atmosphère intimiste, plongeant le spectateur dans un moment de réflexion spirituelle intense. La lumière, omniprésente dans le travail de La Tour, éclaire le visage de la Madeleine, révélant une expression de souffrance mêlée à l'espoir. Ce tableau, véritable chef-d'œuvre, invite à une contemplation silencieuse, où chaque coup de pinceau semble murmurer une histoire de foi et de renaissance. Style et singularité de l’œuvre Le style de Georges de La Tour se caractérise par une utilisation magistrale du clair-obscur, technique qui confère à ses œuvres une dimension presque sculpturale. Dans "La Madeleine repentante", la lumière se fait le vecteur des émotions, créant des contrastes saisissants entre les zones d'ombre et les éclats lumineux. La Madeleine, représentée avec une grande délicatesse, est entourée d'objets symboliques qui renforcent le propos de la repentance. Le drapé de sa robe, richement détaillé, semble épouser ses formes tout en ajoutant une profondeur visuelle à la composition. La palette de couleurs, dominée par des tons chauds et terreux, évoque une atmosphère de sérénité et de recueillement. La Tour parvient à capturer l'essence même de l'âme humaine, rendant cette œuvre intemporelle et universelle. Chaque regard posé sur cette peinture révèle de nouvelles nuances, témoignant de la richesse de son interprétation. L’artiste et son influence Georges de La Tour, né en Lorraine, est souvent considéré comme l'un des maîtres du baroque français, bien que son style soit profondément ancré dans les traditions de la peinture flamande. Sa carrière, bien que relativement courte, a laissé une empreinte indélébile sur l'histoire de l'art. La Tour a su s'imposer par son approche novatrice de la lumière et de l'ombre, influençant de nombreux artistes qui ont suivi ses pas. Son œuvre est marquée par une spiritualité palpable,Shipping Notes

Love how this author writes, BUT..
Format: Kindle
I wanted to love everything about this book. I had this book release on my calendar. I read it the moment it became available. I’ve become a big fan after Marshall’s Blood and Bindings series, and I think she does a beautiful job writing complex, thoughtful characters.
BUT.
Spoilers below-
This book missed the mark in two important ways for me. The first is the intro - this “very proper lady assassin” - first of all - we are supposed to believe that SHE is who the most powerful man in the city chose to assassinate his mortal enemy? Sure. She had killed some unsuspecting guys. But the leap from there to a Fae king with magic? And when she goes to do it- she does it by blindly bumbling around his castle and walking into the room where he is and trying to stab him in the middle of the day? I am willing suspend a lot of disbelief for a good story, but that was a major stretch that made the whole premise of the book feel contrived.
And second… a whole dead side of his body? Like … dead. As in.. she smelled the rot. Saw the skeleton and dead mouth and skin. And then … had sex with it?
Um. I’m no prude but … yuck. I couldn’t get past the necrophiliac imagery and visual, and it was a major turn off for me.

✨’Would it truly be that bad?' he muttered, and for the first time since she'd awoken, there was a hint of humanity in his quiet words, a crack in that jaundiced shield. Warm breath brushed past her scalp. His arms didn't let go.
'If you ended up here with no way to leave?'

Fantasy Romance 📖
🥀Oh, these moment with our MMC reach deep for me and make me love him all the more! Curse Of The Thorn King is @authorlisettemarshall’s new and utterly enchanting Beauty and the Beast retelling, and I absolutely loved it! This steamy, forced proximity, enemies to lovers story is the first installment in the new Wayfarer Fae series and I fell hard for these characters!
✨I thoroughly enjoyed the unique flower magic systems, the assassin plot, all of fun additions of Lady Lockwell's Handbook of Etiquette, and how that factored into the story. The flirtatious and stabby banter between the two main characters had me grinning like a complete fool as the romance developed….all while experiencing the moments that made my heart ache and even break for our MC’s as the plot unfolded.
🥀As I read Curse of the Thorn King I was consumed by that quintessential balance of angst, tension, steam, COMPLETE frustration (in the best way) emotional turmoil, and swoon worthy moments that my heart has come to associate with the magic of Lisette Marshall’s writing. This authors always makes me feel allll the feels ✨✨It is no surprise that I intimately drawn to these characters and their story.
✨I highly recommend Curse Of The Thorn King to fantasy, fantasy romance, and romantasy readers.

5 ⭐️ / 2.5-3 🌶️
Format: Paperback
I do not know where my original review went so I’m reposting
Includes:
- Beauty and the Beast vibes, but with a Fae twist
- Enemies to lovers
- Slow burn
- Forced proximity
- Standalone HEA
There are now two books I love that have opening sentences that reference bars of soap.
@authorlisettemarshall ‘s books never disappoint me and this standalone is no exception. I absolutely love her writing style, the unique magic systems she uses, as well as her ability to convey such vivid details regarding things like clothing and places. It really helps someone like me (who isn't a good visualizer) immerse myself in the story.
It also MUST be said that Lisette has really mastered the art of writing the slow burn for me. With fun characters and banter, she sprinkles in little breadcrumbs here and there that help with the romance build up and, baby, I'm hot on those breadcrumbs' trails just EATING them up.
TLDR; Put this on your TBR.

Format: Kindle
Fun read with some of my favorite things: enemy to lover trope, magic, badass FMC, some build-up/steam, and the occasional glimpse into the MMC’s POV.
