Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) was an Italian artist known for his portraits and modernist style sculptures. Born in Livorno, Italy, Modigliani grew up in a family of Sephardic Jews and studied art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Livorno and the National School of Decorative Arts in Paris. Modigliani turned to painting and sculpture after being diagnosed with bone tuberculosis, which eventually caused his premature death at the age of 35. His works are characterized by their formal simplicity and inner expression, and he is best known for his portraits of women with elongated features and sad eyes. Some of his most famous works include "Reclining Nude" (1917), "Young Girl in Red Dress" (1918), and "Head of a Woman" (1919). His works have been widely celebrated and are considered one of the most important contributions to modern Italian art.
