His languid female subjects are as instantly recognizable as they are startling, sensual, and swan-necked. Modigliani's unique figuration corresponded to his own personal idea of beauty, but drew upon a rich variety of visual influences, including contemporary Cubism, African carvings, Cambodian sculptures, and 13th century painting from his native Italy. Although most renowned for his nude females, he applied similar stylistic techniques to portraits of male artistic contemporaries such as Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau, and Chaim Soutine. With key works from his highly individualistic repertoire, this book introduces Modigliani's brief but revered career at the heart of Paris' early modernist hotbed. 600 10 $a Modigliani, Amedeo, $d 1884-1920. 650 0 $a Painting, Modern $y 20th century $z France. 650 0 $a Painting, Modern $y 20th century $z Italy. 700 12 $a Modigliani, Amedeo, $d 1884-1920. $t Paintings. $k Selections. 700 1 $a Rathgeber, Christina, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722062358.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4AC38D14EAB411EB95DB475F3FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
