===Output=== During his early years in Paris, Modigliani worked at a furious pace. He was constantly sketching, making as many as a hundred drawings a day. However, many of his works were lost—destroyed by him as inferior, left behind in his frequent changes of address, or given to girlfriends who did not keep them.<ref name="werner-24" /> He was first influenced by [[Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec]], but around 1907 he became fascinated with the work of [[Paul Cézanne]]. Eventually he developed his own unique style, one that cannot be adequately categorized with those of other artists. He met the first serious love of his life, Russian poet [[Anna Akhmatova]], in 1910, when he was 26. They had studios in the same building, and although 21-year-old Anna had recently married, they began an affair.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/art/art-features/11532201/Modigliani-and-the-Russian-beauty-the-affair-that-changed-him.html "Modigliani and the Russian beauty: the affair that changed him"] Retrieved 21 July 2015</ref> Anna was tall with dark hair, pale skin and grey-green eyes: she embodied Modigliani's aesthetic ideal and the pair became engrossed in each other. After a year, however, Anna returned to her husband.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=wycoiv9BJ0QC&q=Secrest%2C+Meryle%2C+Modigliani Secrest, Meryle, ''Modigliani''], Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, 2011, p. 136, {{ISBN|0307595471}}</ref>
