Publisher's Summary

Hvide skygger er fortællingen om den legendariske danske billedhugger Bertel Thorvaldsen. Thorvaldsens karriere startede, da han som barn kom ind på Det kongelige danske kunstakademi, men den tog for alvor fart, da han som 26-årig flyttede til Rom. Hans romerske værksted var vidt besøgt af alle lige fra statsoverhoveder til digtere, rigmænd til kunstnere. Bogen giver ikke blot et indblik i Thorvaldsens virke som kunstner. Den tegner også et portræt af manden bag marmoren, hans forhold til kvinder og sin egen berømmelse, samt hans evige kamp for at finde en mening med sit arbejde.

Billedkunstneren Steen Bach Christensen (f. 1956) debuterede som forfatter i 2003 med novellesamlingen Prousts hjerte. I sine to efterfølgende udgivelser, romanen Efter Fujiyama og Hvide skygger, en biografi om den store danske billedhugger Bertel Thorvaldsen, inddrager Bach Christensen sin egen entusiasme for kunst.
