Recently discovered, thanks to a brief reference in, of all places, the film "Made of Honor" with Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan, are the works of Modigliani. I'm sure I've seen/heard of them before, of course, but revisiting them I find 'le parfait esprit du jour'.
The raven haired lady in the riding jacket is by far my favourite. The elegant woman on the bottom right, by the by, capture to my eye the essence of recent collections by the designer Celine and the resurgence of understatedly sophisticated Nineties Minimalism a la Caroline Bessett Kennedy and Calvin Klein.
