The artwork named “Portrait of Madame Zborowska,” created by Amedeo Modigliani in 1917 in Paris, France, is an oil painting on canvas. This work belongs to the Expressionism art movement and is categorized as a portrait. Currently, the artwork resides in a private collection.
The artwork presents a striking depiction of Madame Zborowska, rendered in Modigliani’s distinctive style, characterized by elongated forms and stylized features. The subject’s long neck and angular face, combined with the dark, muted color palette, exude an aura of introspection and grace. The background is understated, allowing the viewer’s focus to remain steadfastly on the figure of Madame Zborowska. The expression on her face is serene, imbuing the portrait with a contemplative and almost melancholic atmosphere, which is characteristic of Modigliani’s portraits during this period.
