Alice Haigh, née en 1879 à Hackney (Londres) et morte en 1943 à Worthing (Angleterre), est une poétesse britannique, journaliste et critique d’art. Avant qu’éclate la Première guerre mondiale, elle s’installe en France où elle donne, comme chroniqueuse du New Age, des nouvelles de la vie de société à Paris. Grâce à son ami, l’artiste Max Jacob, elle est admise dans la bohème parisienne et vit dans le quartier des artistes à Montparnasse. En juin 1914, elle fait la connaissance du peintre et sculpteur italien Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920), avec lequel elle vit pendant plus de deux ans une relation amoureuse. Elle pose pour lui de nombreuses fois, quatorze portraits et nus ayant subsisté jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Au cours de leur relation turbulente, la vie de Modigliani tombe de plus en plus dans les excès. Sa consommation d’alcool et d’opium, qu’il partage avec ses amis Maurice Utrillo et Chaïm Soutine, est fréquemment évoquée par la presse. Fin 1916, Modigliani la quitte pour la jeune étudiante en arts Jeanne Hébuterne (1898-1920). Peu de temps après, Beatrice Hastings entame une relation orageuse avec Raymond Radiguet (1903-1923 et se suicide en 1943, lorsque les médecins lui diagnostiqunt un cancer (cf. wikipédia).

Modigliani was an Italian painter and sculptor who worked mainly in France. He is known for portraits in a modern style characterized by elongation of faces and bodies. His artwork was not accepted at first by people, but he eventually became a famous portrait artist. Modigliani spent his youth in Italy, where he studied the art of antiquity and the Renaissance, until he moved to Paris in 1906. There he came into contact with prominent artists such as Pablo Picasso and Constantin Brâncuşi.

Amedeo Modigliani (1918).
The first time I visited Oslo in the summer of 2017, I went to a handful of museums: The Munch Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the National Gallery of Norway (because they have the original of The Scream, though you'd think that would be at the Munch), the Astrup Fearnley Museum, even the Mini Bottle Gallery. That's a niche museum...of mini bottles. (Surprisingly worth the visit, too, though I didn't go back this time -- just walked by it. Pressed for time.)
I also went to the Kon-Tiki Museum, Fram Museum, Vikingskipshuset, and the Norsk Folkemuseum across the fjord in Bygdoy -- reachable by ferry. The Bygdoy museums are all worth a day trip, too. Very enjoyable, each one. (The Viking Ship Museum is temporarily closed, though, and that -- along with enough time -- was also enough to keep me from heading out there this trip.
As a bonus, there are also two outstanding sculpture parks in Oslo: Ekebergparken on the south end of downtown and Frognerparken (its official name, but also known as Vigelandsparken) on the north end of downtown. Oh...and Oslo has statues, monuments, sculptures all around town. I think I saw somewhere there are about 600 different sculptures around town, but I could be completely remembering that wrong. The point is...Oslo is a darned fine place to come if you love art. The museums charge admission, but the sculpture parks and sculptures around town are all free.
Fast forward 6.5 years, and I find myself back in town. The museum scene changed. A good number of those museums have merged. In 2017, they were in separate locations.
The Munch (hasn't merged -- just moved) is now on the waterfront next to the Opera House. Others have merged.
In 2003, the National Museum was established by merging the Museum of Architecture, the Museum of Industrial Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Decorative Arts and Design, and the National Gallery of Art into one large building. Though this happened in 2003, none of them had moved by 2017. In 2022, they finally all moved under one roof in the new National Museum of Art, Architecture, and Design...or Nasjonalmuseet. The building is located on the edge of Radhusplassen, behind the Nobel Peace Prize Museum in a large space that makes for a great half day to day visit.
Looking at portraits, Modigliani was an obvious choice... the approach of form, elongation of features... ultra feminine - the beautiful oval eyes.
I later based a portrait of a friend on this piece.
