Cullen explores Rembrandt's innovative art and unconventional behavior through the eyes of his illegitimate daughter. The novel's tangle of relationships is worthy of a soap opera, but young Cornelia's pragmatic attitude toward her father's work and her deep emotional attachment to her family make her a convincing narrator. An author's note and a list of notable Rembrandt paintings are appended.
