Серия Жизнь в искусстве. Модильяни

About "a short but full life", one of the most interesting artists of the early XX century, whose art has been attracting interest all over the world for fifty years, this book tells. Modigliani's creative biography is published in Russian for the first time. A serious and thoughtful analysis of Modigliani's art is skillfully and very subtly combined in the book with a fascinating and truthful story about the tragic fate of the painter, about the artistic life of Paris, about writers and artists, most of whom chose "the hard path of an outcast, but not bowed talent." Modigliani captured many of them in his portraits, where he managed to comprehend not only the plastic and spiritual world of his models, but "remained true to what he saw."
