Shorena Lebanidze’s prose belongs to the genre of documentary fiction, offering a literary version of Niko Pirosmani’s life. The fact that the author based her novel on the existing material, archive sources and the memoirs of the painter’s contemporaries makes it documentary. In general, the novel looks into the creative process and the talent of the self-taught painter, something which has held wide interest even in Niko Pirosmani’s life continuing into present days.
