A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice New York Times Notable author María Gainza, who dazzled critics with Optic Nerve, returns with the captivating story of an auction house employee on the trail of an enigmatic master forger In the Buenos Aires art world, a master forger has achieved legendary status. Rumored to be a woman, she specializes in canvases by the painter Mariette Lydis, a portraitist of Argentinean high society. But who is this absurdly gifted creator of counterfeits? What motivates her? And what is her link to the community of artists who congregate, night after night, in a strange establishment called the Hotel Melancólico? On the trail of this mysterious forger is our narrator, an art critic and auction house employee through whose hands counterfeit works have passed. As she begins to take on the role of art-world detective, adopting her own methods of deception and manipulation, she warns us “not to proceed in expectation of names, numbers or dates . . . My techniques are those of the impressionist.” Driven by obsession and full of subtle surprise, Portrait of an Unknown Lady is a highly seductive and enveloping meditation on what we mean by "authenticity" in art, and a captivating exploration of the gap between what is lived and what is told.

She came to America to claim a priceless legacy, but the silver mine that brought Danielle Fleming across the ocean led her to an untamed land where neither her beauty nor her money could buy safety. From the glittering society of St. Louis to Crazy Horse’s war-torn Dakotas, she followed her destiny and the men who were her fate—the half brother whose dark secret threatened to destroy her, the world-famous composer who found in her the inspiration for his greatest work, the cavalry captain who viewed her as the prize jewel in his crown of ruthless ambition, and the half-breed outlaw who stole her heart and put his lusty brand upon her soul.
