About Man with a Glass of Wine

The artwork titled “Man with a Glass of Wine” is a renowned piece by the artist Amedeo Modigliani, created circa 1918 in Paris, France. This oil on canvas painting, which falls under the expressionist movement, represents a portrait genre and is currently held within a private collection.

In the artwork, a man adorned in a brown suit with a matching hat sits beside a table, upon which rests a glass of wine and a bottle. The composition exudes a sense of introspection and tranquility, as the man appears to be deep in thought, with his eyes closed and head slightly tilted. The use of elongated forms and the muted, earthy color palette are characteristic of Modigliani’s style, emphasizing the emotional depth and abstracted simplicity of the subject. The background, rendered in dark tones, further accentuates the contemplative mood enveloping the figure.
