Have you ever read Tracy Chevalier? Girl with a Pearl Earring weaves the historical detail in quite well, though I think her other historical fic. (about the Unicorn tapestries currently on display in the Cloisters) does a superb job.

I've read Girl with a Pearl Earring and liked it, but I haven't read her other book. I've seen the unicorn tapestry at the Cloisters (my favorite museum in NYC) so maybe I should check it out.

Also--now that I've seen that painting, and the vases at the MFA, I want to read the book a lot more!
