Amedeo Modigliani (born 1884 in Livorno, died 1920 in Paris) - Italian painter and sculptor associated with the École de Paris. He became most famous for his portraits and nudes, recognizable for their elongated proportions, simplified lines and monumental, synthetic form. His work - though often underestimated during his lifetime - became one of the symbols of modern portraiture in the 20th century.
Ludwika "Lunia" Czechowska (née Makowska; 1894-1990) - a Polish woman with ties to Paris, a figure in the circle of Polish artistic bohemia. She met Modigliani in 1916 thanks to the art dealer Leopold Zborowski; she became one of his best-known models and a close friend, portrayed many times in drawings and paintings. After World War II, she was also active as a gallerist (in sources she appears as Mme Czechowska-Choszczo).
