The artwork titled “Marios Varvoglis” was created by Amedeo Modigliani in 1920 in Paris, France. This piece, rendered in pencil, belongs to the Expressionism art movement and is a portrait genre. Currently, it is housed at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, NY, US.
The artwork depicts a stylized portrait of a man wearing a hat and coat. Modigliani’s signature elongated facial features and neck are evident, emphasizing a refined yet abstract interpretation of the subject. The lines are fluid and expressive, characteristic of Modigliani’s style, capturing both the likeness and emotional essence of the subject. The simplicity of the pencil medium enhances the subtlety and depth of the portrait, conveying a sense of introspection and sophistication.
