Jeanne & Modigliani: Paris in the dark

"A Captivating Darkness" - ComicsVerse
"[Van der Straten] does well, with subtle storytelling and moody artwork" - Pixel Pop Network
Achieving little recognition in his own lifetime, Amedeo Modigliani, a young expressionist artist in Paris, went on to become highly influential after his untimely death in 1920. Jeanne Hebuterne was his last companion, his ever-faithful supporter. Although a talented artist in her own right, when their romance begins Jeanne is quickly pulled into the abyss of Modigliani's destructive ego, to tragic ends.
This is Jeanne Hebuterne's biography-- she who quietly slipped through her 19 years in the background of the scene, as if to apologize for being there.
Written about women by a woman, to reclaim the narrative through comic art. This is a feminist graphic novel. A mature period drama book, full of beautiful black-and-white drawings, best read by adults.
