MODIGLIANI(ISBN=) 英文原版

　　From the acclaimed biographer of Bernard Berenson, Salvador
Dalí, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Stephen Sondheim, admired for her
sensitivity, versatility, and eloquence—a new full-scale biography
of the celebrated modernist painter and sculptor that brings to
life the seemingly shy, delicate man behind the romantic
myth.
　　Amedeo Modigliani was considered the quintessential bohemian
artist—his legend almost as infamous as Van Gogh’s.
　　In this major new biography Meryle Secrest writes about his
upbringing as a Sephardic Jew from an impoverished genteel Italian
family; his move to Paris to make his fortune; his striking good
looks . . . his training as an artist, learning everything from
painting, drawing, and sculpture to nude studies and landscapes;
his influences and his long-kept secret illness of tuberculosis and
the crucial ways it affected his life and work.
　　Here is Modigliani, the man and the artist, his life in the
streets, and the Paris in which he lived, a city of boundless
opportunity; and the world of art and artists then in the
passionate embrace of aesthetic revolution.

　　Meryle Secrest was born and educated in Bath,
England, and lives in Washington, D.C. She is the author of ten
biographies and is the recipient of the 2006 National Humanities
Medal.
