The Delft Muse 

The Delft Muse is the true story of headstrong but insecure Catharina Bolnes, a rich Catholic heiress, who pursues a fuller and more meaningful life by marrying budding artist Johannes Vermeer rather than the draper Antoni de Graaf. To keep her marriage to Vermeer intact, Catharina must overcome her insecurities to win back his trust and thwart Antoni's vindictive plans for Vermeer's masterpiece. Her integrity is at stake. Their true story has remained a secret until now.
