Harry Potter: Faces in Stone, by Ignipes
FANDOM: Harry Potter
FIC LINK: Faces in Stone
AUTHOR LINK:
ignipes
RATING/WARNING(S): PG | No author warnings; some grim imagery, mention of wartime suffering
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete | 4700 words
MAIN CHARACTERS: Hermione Granger
FIC SUMMARY: A photograph in an old book sends Hermione on a quest to find the surviving works of the mysterious sculptor who created the Fountain of Magical Brethren at the Ministry of Magic.
RECCER'S NOTES: Beyond using portraits as characters, magical art is poorly developed in canon and rarely explored in fanfiction. In this thoughtful & atmospheric one off, Ignipes invents the field of magical sculpture, barely mentioned in canon, via the works of a sculptor who survived the Grindelwald war. But it's so much more than that: the piece folds in wizarding prejudices and the after effects of war on the survivors. A beautifully characterised Hermione on a post-warroadrail trip through Italy makes the perfect narrator.
My first rec here: hope everything is in order!
