About the Author
Acclaimed author Alice Heard Williams is an art historian. She has lectured in America and in England where she completed the fine arts program in art history at the University of London.
Her novels embrace a common theme – the power and profound nature of great art.
Her earlier novel on Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh entitled Seeking the High Yellow Note was dubbed by Amazon.com as one of the best twenty books on Provence. In this book, she compassionately wrote of van Gogh’s sojourn in France.
Another book set in Tuscany, Remembering Piero, describes the life of Early Renaissance painter Piero della Francesca and his model, Maddalena dei Crespi.
Pensione Anastasia , set in Greece and London, traces the theft and recovery of a valuable and ancient amulet of Apollo. The search is led by Emma Darling, an American girl touring Greek temple sites with her university group from London.
Alice Heard Williams lives with her husband in Delray Beach, Florida and Lynchburg, Virginia.
