Features: This book is an introduction to the works of the Western artist Modigliani. Amedeo Modigliani exemplified the typical image of a self-destructive artist in both his life and his artistic career. Living in a small, desolate cottage under the eaves, he struggled against poverty and old customs with the help of alcohol and drugs, and ignited the same passion for his ideal art. This book includes chapters on Modigliani, his artistic career, the unrestrained artist, style and technique, a traditionalist who began with romance, close-ups of masterpieces, nudes on cushions, and selected works.
