The Chrysalis
Heather Terrell, 2008
Overview
In 17th-century Haarlem, a forbidden love affair between a Dutch master painter and the magistrate's daughter results in a controversial masterpiece, "The Chrysalis." This painting, filled with Catholic symbolism, sparks outrage in the Protestant city and ends the artist's career. Centuries later, in present-day New York, a high-profile lawyer takes on a case involving the auction of this lost artwork. The painting is claimed by the heirs of a collector who lost his possessions to the Nazis, leading to a complex legal battle and a potential betrayal.
