I went to a Modigliani exhibit at New York City's Jewish Museum a few years ago, and the only painting I can remember is one called "The Jewess." It featured a close-up portrait of one intense-looking chick. She was seductive yet dignified--young, but confident in her stare. Check it out: http://www.zeek.net/art_04082..... Maybe there's some insight when you see what a "Jewess" looked like through a man's eyes...
