He (2) been born in Livorno, Italy , in 1884. His father was a businessman who did not make (3) much money, and his mother (4) taught a school.



Modigliani went to art school in Florence and Venice, before moving to Paris (5)where he painted and make sculptures . His work was (6) discovered by art from Africa which he saw in museums. He was very poor and not very strong, and after a ( 7) several years he gave up making sculptures. He painted people in a gentle, thoughtful style.





Many of his most beautiful painting (8) show Jeanne, the woman he loved. Often the people in his paintings look sad or tired. Perhaps Moodigliani was painting his own feelings. (9) therefore in the end he began to (10) earn a little money , he was never very successful in his lifetime.
