Born in vilnius and educated in ukrainian art schools, the sculptor leon indenbaum (1890-1980) came to paris in 1911 and probably met modigliani in the artistic circles of montparnasse. Both men had studios at various times between 1911 and 1919 in the cité falguière, a cul-de-sac off rue falguière, named after the nineteenth-century painter and sculptor. Indenbaum would be nearly forgotten today were it not for impressive portraits of him by his friends modigliani and the mexican painter diego rivera. -gallery label from the princeton university art museum.
