Trovata una Sega! Livorno, Modigliani, and the Legendary Prank

A storytelling of the infamous 1984 prank in Livorno: the recovery of alleged Modigliani sculptures hailed as masterpieces, only to be revealed as fakes by three students. Amid deceived critics, unresolved mysteries, and unintended comedy, it paints a vivid portrait of an Italy ready to believe the legend, never losing its taste for the absurd—truly, “the prank of the century.”
