Summary:

Unlike Velazquez, his contemporary of the Spanish Golden Age, Zurbarán mostly painted saints. The first are famous, the seconds much less. The author has eyes only for them. First of all for the rich and worldly way in which the painter has dressed them. The dresses they wear are far from their condition. By the way, who were these forgotten? Through some fifteen paintings chosen from museums or catalogs, Florence Delay leads the investigation. "A dress, a life", such is the composition of this book where the secret design of Zurbarán joins that of the designer Balenciaga, another silent genius.--Translated of page 4 of cover by Gallimard
