1230) Renée Kisling

Renée Kisling (born Gros, 1896 - 1960). French artist. She studied art at the Académie Ranson, Paris, where she met the artist Moïse Kisling (1891 - 1953). They married in 1917. She modeled both for her husband and for Amedeo Modigliani, who made three sketches of her and two oil portraits.

- "Stranely, I liked her immediately, with her auburn hair cut short, large nose and pointed chin."  https://books.google.it/books…
