Paris. Montmartre. Montparnasse. A time when the air was thick with absinthe, cigarette smoke, and genius. In the golden era of modern art, two titans collided. This is not a tale of art alone—it is a fevered chronicle of rivalry, betrayal, inspiration, jealousy, and love. Modigliani and Picasso: two names carved into art history, whose legacies were both forged and fractured by each other. This novel delves not into the myth but into the imagined fire that burned between them. Here, art is war. And genius, a double-edged brush.
