The artwork titled “Leon Indenbaum” was created by Amedeo Modigliani in 1915 in Paris, France. Executed in oil on canvas, this piece is an exemplar of the Expressionism movement. The portrait measures 54.6 x 45.7 cm and is currently held in a private collection.
The artwork presents an elongated and stylized depiction of a male figure, characterized by Modigliani’s distinctive approach to portraiture. The elongated face and simplified features are integral to the artist’s expressionistic style, giving the subject a timeless and introspective quality. The background is muted, allowing the focus to remain firmly on the figure’s face, which exudes a palpable sense of tranquility and introspection. The subdued color palette and soft contours further enhance the emotional depth and character captured in the portrait.
