Summary: The work of Italian painter and sculptor Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) has never been more popular than it is today. The sensuous nudes and intense, mannered portraits that are his trademark have become favorites of collectors and museum-goers alike. Modigliani worked on the fringes of the Parisian avant-garde in the 1910s, maintaining an affinity for the artistic traditions of his native Italy as well as for the art of ancient Egypt and African civilizations. Modigliani's impassioned productivity was cut short by his untimely death, but this volume captures the intensity of his drawings, sculptures, and paintings in rich full-color illustrations.
