Features: This book is one of the "Complete Works of World Famous Painters." Amedeo Modigliani, known as the "Prince of Montparnasse," lived to be only 36 years old. Born into a prominent Jewish family in Rome, he pursued a lifelong celebration of life and love. The unique sensitivity of Jewish heritage and the traditions and roots of Italian art influenced his paintings and sculptures. His works are almost entirely figures, rarely landscapes, especially vividly depicting women lost in love, unwilling to face reality. This book narrates Modigliani's life journey and artistic path, detailing his subjective deformation techniques in painting and his achievements in sculpture. It also includes "Modigliani of Montparnasse" written by the renowned writer and poet Cocteau, as well as Modigliani's letters and chronology, accompanied by more than 200 illustrations.
