Today, Niko Pirosmani (1865-1919) is considered one of the most important painters in the history of 20th century art. As a self-taught, penniless vagabond and artist in life, his work was characterised by a uniqueness that was fed exclusively by the painter's rich spiritual world. His clear, flawless and immediate perception of the world and a childlike honesty broke academic boundaries and inspired the avant-gardists of his time. Fame and recognition nevertheless eluded him throughout his life.
On the basis of eyewitness accounts, newspaper articles, protocols, and, for the first time, sources that previously fell victim to communist censorship, the author sheds new light on Pirosmani's legendary life and finds answers to previously unsolved questions. He creates a fascinating and also contradictory portrait, which he embeds in the wide range of cosmopolitan social life in Georgia's capital Tbilisi at the turn of the century. We meet more or less famous personalities of the time, writers, poets, painters, politicians, shopkeepers, owners of taverns and pubs, and many more
