Oil on canvas, framed. Attributed to Amedeo Modigliani (1884 - 1920). The painting captures a figure, rendered with the artist’s iconic treatment of the human form; elongated neck and nuanced posture, enveloped in rich tones that breathe life into the subject. Signed Modigliani on top right corner. Labels on verso of BERNHEIM JEUNE & C and GALERIE SIMON. 71 x 61 cm (28" x 24"), framed: 91 x 78.7 cm (36" x 31"). Modigliani modernized two enduring themes of art history: the portrait and the nude. His works, marked by a sense of melancholy, elongated proportions, and mask-like faces influenced by sources like Constantin Brancusi and African art, defy easy classification. Collections celebrating his brilliance in esteemed institutions such as the Art Institute of Chicago, where his works continue to resonate with viewers. Additionally, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City houses some of his iconic pieces, including “Woman in Profile” and “Seated Nude”.
