Jeanne Hébuterne with Hat and Necklace is an oil-on-canvas painting by Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani created in 1917.
A special attention is given to her eyes painted in a light shade of blue which comes forward on a darker background.
Modigliani met Jeanne Hébuterne, a 19-year-old art student, in the spring of 1917 through the Russian sculptor Chana Orloff.
Soon Modigliani ended his relationship with the English poet and art critic Beatrice Hastings and a short time later Hébuterne and Modigliani moved together into a studio on the Rue de la Grande Chaumière.
[4] A day after Modigliani’s death of tuberculous meningitis, on 25 January 1920, Hébuterne being eight months pregnant, committed suicide by throwing herself from the window of her parents’ apartment.
