Summary “A Word, Only a Word — Volume 03” by Georg Ebers is a historical novel likely written during the late 19th century. The book follows the experiences of Ulrich, a young artist, as he navigates the artistic world of 16th-century Spain, grappling with themes of death, artistic ambition, and the dynamics of mentorship, particularly with the accomplished painter Antonio Moor. At the start of the novel, Ulrich witnesses death for the first time, significantly altering his perspective on life and art. As he travels with Moor to Madrid, he observes the artist's growing fame and the lavish receptions he receives from the Spanish court. Throughout the opening chapters, we are introduced to the powerful relationships between the characters, particularly the budding friendship between Ulrich and the celebrated painter Sophonisba Anguisciola. The narrative develops themes of loyalty, artistic struggle, and the shifting loyalties within the backdrop of courtly intrigue as Ulrich prepares to undertake his own artistic journey amidst the expectations and dangers of the world around him.
