"It 's been passed down the story of the old RENOIR that gave advice to the young painter and the recommended paint pictures with the same desire with which he loves a woman - I caress a butt for hours before to paint a picture -, Renoir would have said to Modigliani, and they replied that he did not do anything with my butt, after which it broke off the visit ... Renoir was a kind of painting that descended from the reality, which was tactile and full of sensuality, from which it differs significantly Modigliani. Sensuality in painting by Modigliani is completely different, more spiritual, more lyrical, more cool and what is revealed in the clearest possible way in portraits of Jeanne Hebuterne, painted by the end of life .... "
