Jeanne Hébuterne
Artist: Amedeo Modigliani (Italian, 1884-1920)
Date: 1918
Medium: Oil on canvas
Collection: Norton Simon Museum, Pasadena, CA, United States
About this painting
With elongated proportions and mask-like faces, Modigliani’s mature portraits share an unsettling family likeness. The pictures he painted of one sitter, however, are distinguished by particular grace and reverence. Modigliani met Jeanne Hébuterne, an aspiring artist, in the summer of 1917; she fell passionately in love and, in November of the following year, bore him the daughter she may already have been carrying when she sat for this picture, assuming the pose of an Italian Renaissance Virgin Annunciate. Born in Italy, Modigliani had moved to Paris in 1906, immersing himself in the bohemian artistic communities of Montmartre and Montparnasse. He frequented Picasso’s studio, dabbled in Cubism, and developed an addiction to drugs and alcohol. By the time he met Hébuterne, he was already gravely ill but had evolved the distinctive style - influenced by Botticelli and the early Italian masters - deployed in this picture.

Christ Carrying his Cross
Artist: Giampietrino, probably Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli (Italian, active 1495–1549)
Date: About 1510-1530
Medium: Oil on wood
Collection: The National Gallery, London, United Kingdom
Overview
Christ turns to look at us as he carries the Cross on which he will be crucified. This type of painting, in which the viewer is put in the position of the holy women on whom Christ looked on the route to Calvary, was especially popular in North Italy in the sixteenth century. Christ’s eyes appeal to us in his pain to stir our emotions and arouse our compassion.
Giampietrino’s composition is based on a silver-point study of the same subject by Leonardo, which was also used by a range of artists working in Lombardy at the time.
