Jacques and Berthe Lipchitz
Amedeo Modigliani, 1916
Amedeo Modigliani created his finest paintings between 1914 and his premature death in 1920. Focusing on a limited range of subjects, mainly portraits and nudes, he developed a highly distinctive style of sensitively elongated forms. Sculptor Jacques Lipchitz commissioned Modigliani to paint this portrait on the occasion of his marriage to the poet Berthe Kitrosser as a way of helping his troubled friend financially.
