Amedeo Clemente Modigliani
(July 12, 1884 - January 24, 1920)
Italian painter and sculptor
He was born in Livorno, Tuscany, Italy, the fourth child of the
Jewish family of Flaminio Modigliani and Amedeo Clemente Modigliani’s
French born wife, Eugénie Garsin and was raised in poverty after Amedeo
Clemente Modigliani’s father's money-changing business went bankrupt.
Amedeo was also beset by health problems after an attack of typhoid at
the age of 14 followed by tuberculosis two years later. Amedeo Clemente
Modigliani’s family suffered with a history of depression as did he, and
at least some of Amedeo Clemente Modigliani’s siblings seemed to have
also inherited Amedeo Clemente Modigliani’s stubborn, independent
streak. In 1898 Amedeo Clemente Modigliani’s 26-year-old brother,
Emmanuel, was sentenced to six months imprisonment as an anarchist.
