Modigliani: Beyond the Myth
URL: http://www.thejewishmuseum.org/site/pages/onlinex.php?id=22

Description:
This site is a companion to a show at the Jewish Museum that presents the work of Italian painter and sculptor Amedeo Modigliani. "An anomaly among the many foreign Jewish artists who lived in Paris during the early 1900s, Modigliani remained independent of any movement or style, and was known primarily for his reclining nudes and portraits with elegantly elongated features." The site features annotated images of over a dozen paintings and sculptures.
