There is not much we have seen about Jeanne Hebuterne's art. Most of her works remained unknown until they were discovered in 1992 and most are today hidden and scattered through private collections.  

What we have available for our "museum without walls" are some beautiful portraits of her made by her husband Amedeo Modigliani, a series of drawing signed of her hand, and a few paintings including two outstanding works: The Death a watercolor probably painted in 1919 and a Self-Portrait of blue vivid shades, painted in 1916.

At the end of their life, when Modigliani was highly sick and she was pregnant with their second child, Jeanne was painting watercolors painting, interpreted as a testimonial of her mental state. The Death painted at that time can be interpreted as a vision of a near future. The space and the color of the room depicted are the starting point of this small virtual world dedicated to an artist we are yet to see more of.
