Modigliani, Amedeo (Italian painter, sculptor, and draftsman, 1884-1920, active in France)

Note: Modigliani is noted for his portraits and studies characterized by radical elongation and simplification of the face and figure. He arrived in Paris 1906 and became interested in the work of Cézanne. He soon made contact with André Salmon, Max Jacob, and Picasso. In 1909 Brancusi suggested that he study African sculpture, and he exhibited works in 1912 that reflect this influence, which later carried over to his painting style.
