Huile sur toile, 100 x 65 cm, 1919, musée d'Art, Sao Paulo.
Dans ce portrait, qui rappelle les masques africains ayant fasciné l'artiste par leur simplicité formelle et leur cohérence plutôt que par leur expression intense, Amedeo Modigliani semble avoir réussi à capturer l'essence de son sujet, lui-même. Il retourna même à ses racines fauves pour les teintes frappantes et si typiques de la complication tuberculeuse. Il s'inspira également des sculptures de son ami Brancusi pour la sérénité étudiée et sa capacité émotionnelle à capturer les profondeurs des ténèbres dans ces objets stylisés. Mais dans cet autoportrait de joues creusées et de lèvres scellées, il immortalise plus que son visage et peint le visage de la tuberculose. Ayant longtemps refusé toute image peinte de lui, se sentant malade, peut-être est-ce là son véritable testament ?

Esperando pelo Manoel Trindade no Bar do Biu, na João Moura com a Cardeal, fiz este desenho de memória tentando transmitir a serenidade e leveza dele. Também quis fazer uma figura mais alongada, como ele é, bem comprido, ao mesmo tempo com algo de Modigliani, um dos meus retratistas preferidos. Brinquei um pouco com os dreads que estão crescendo imprimindo texturas e padrões.
Huile sur toile, 82 x 60 cm, 1917, NGA, Washington.
Né en 1884 dans une famille aristocratique de Livourne, en Italie, Amedeo Modigliani s'est installé dans le quartier de Montmartre à Paris en 1906 et a commencé à réaliser des peintures influencées à la fois par l'ambiance de la période bleue de Picasso et par la structure picturale de Cézanne tardif. En 1909, il rencontre Constantin Brancusi et commence à se consacrer à la sculpture ; les traits fins et les références à l'art africain dans la série de têtes de pierre de 1909-1914 reflètent clairement l'influence de Brancusi.
En tant que peintre et sculpteur, Modigliani se concentrait sur le portrait. Bien qu'il abandonne la sculpture à la fin de 1913 ou au début de 1914 pour revenir à la peinture, les longs cous et les traits atténués de ses sculptures se retrouvent dans ses portraits peints ultérieurs. Modigliani est également connu pour une série de nus langoureux, dont il expose certains en 1918 à la Galerie Berthe Weill à Paris ; l'exposition a été fermée par la police pour obscénité. Modigliani est mort d'une méningite tuberculeuse, aggravée par la drogue et l'alcool, dans un hôpital parisien en 1920.
Le onzième enfant d'un tailleur juif russe, Chaim Soutine (1894-1943), fut sauvé de la pauvreté et des mauvais traitements par un rabbin qui reconnut son talent et l'envoya dans une école d'art, d'abord à Minsk, puis à Vilna. Soutine arrive à Paris à l'âge de 17 ans en 1911-1912 et rencontre Modigliani à Montparnasse vers 1914. Ils développent une étroite amitié et Modigliani peint plusieurs fois le portrait de Soutine. La manière indisciplinée et spontanée de peindre de Soutine était étrangère à son ami italien, qui, pour décrire son propre état d'ivresse, disait un jour en plaisantant : "Tout danse autour de moi comme dans un paysage de Soutine". L'élégant Modigliani se sentait protecteur envers le grossier Soutine, de 10 ans son cadet. En 1916, Modigliani présenta son ami à son marchand, Léopold Zborowski, et le pressa de s'occuper du travail de Soutine, ce qu'il commença à faire. Peu avant la mort de Modigliani, il avait dit à Zborowski : "Ne t'inquiète pas, je te quitte Soutine".
Alors que de nombreux portraits de Modigliani sont soit stylisés et impersonnels, avec des yeux souvent laissés vides, soit presque caricaturaux, ce tableau semble à la fois particulier et sympathique. Soutine est assis avec les cheveux ébouriffés et les vêtements mal assortis, les mains maladroitement placées sur ses genoux, le nez écarté sur le visage alors qu'il regarde hors du cadre. Les yeux mi-clos, l'un légèrement plus haut que l'autre, pourraient suggérer le désespoir et le désespoir de Soutine, attitudes auxquelles Modigliani pourrait s'identifier en tant qu'artiste pauvre à Paris. Le traitement de Soutine par Modigliani peut également refléter la place particulière que Soutine avait gagnée dans l'affection de l'artiste plus âgé (cf. NGA).
