Description: This definitive monograph on Modigliani incorporates new research into one of the most comprehensive surveys ever published on the seminal twentieth-century artist. Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) is one of the most important artists of the early twentieth century. This ambitious volume includes 150 works from throughout Modigliani's tragically brief yet formative career, from the artist's celebrated erotic nudes and iconic, elongated figures to his lesser-known treasures. Accompanying one of the largest exhibitions of Modigliani's paintings, sculptures, and drawings ever shown in Europe, this comprehensive catalogue contextualizes the modernist master alongside works by his peers, such as Cézanne, Brancusi, and Picasso.
Notes: Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Modigliani" held at Tate Modern, London, 23 November 2017-2 April 2018.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 212) and index.
