{"product_id":"modigliani-douglas-hall-9780714827582","title":"Modigliani: Colour Library","description":"Amadeo Modigliani (1884-1920) was one of the many and diverse talents who were drawn to Paris in the early years of this century, making the city a vibrant but pressurized environment for artistic expression. A legend grew up around Modigliani, who, along with others, engendered the concept of the \u003ci\u003epeintre maudit \u003c\/i\u003e- the accursed painter - whose poverty, corruption and excess were the very seeds from which his remarkable works of art were conceived. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUnlike the Italian Futurists, who stormed at their own overwhelming tradition, Modigliani seemed to sense the possibility of returning to it for renewal. His interpretation of a central theme of the tradition, the reclining female nude, produced a series of uniquely beautiful works, outstanding in the grace and harmony of their linear designs and the quality of their colour. Nude, portraits and studies of a surprising range of personalities and psychological types are represented in this ideal introduction to the artist, as is a selection of his remarkable stone carvings, of which about 25 survive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Douglas Hall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0714827584\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780714827582\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Phaidon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/12\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.95h x 8.92w x 0.45d","brand":"Douglas Hall","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46334419828991,"sku":"9780714827582","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d9e5ac01-a541-4ca4-9de3-fd4ad4979b10.jpg?v=1731466784","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/modigliani-douglas-hall-9780714827582","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
