About this title

Synopsis

Reckless and dissolute in personality, but elegant and sensuous in his art, Amedeo Modigliani (18841920) is one of the best-known, and least understood, artists of the 20th century. This comprehensive and beautifully illustrated volume, based on new scholarship and featuring contributions written by distinguished American scholars, explores the myth that surrounds Modigliani -- including his troubled personal life and his death at age 35 -- and re-examines the position he holds within the history of early 20th century art. Focusing on his erotic nudes, portraits, and figures, "Modigliani and His Models" is also the first book to look at the lovers, models, and girlfriends who influenced his work.
