From memory I can name:
Girl with a Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier (Vermeer)
The Way to Paradise by Vargas Llosa (Gauguin)
A good Hungarian novel about Rubens's life "Lover of Life"
As to writers, I don't know where to start.

The Lost Diaries of Franz Hals by Michael Kernan.
Though it's extremely well done, as near as I can tell no one besides me has read it. Pick up a copy at Amazon for 4ยข.

Oh, and how about The Romance of Leonardo da Vinci by Dmitri Merezhkovsky. It's probably out of print, but well worth seeking out (but you may have to go higher than a nickel).
