About Rosa Porprina

The artwork titled “Rosa Porprina” was created by the artist Amedeo Modigliani in 1915 in Paris, France. It is an oil painting on canvas, belonging to the Expressionism art movement. The portrait measures 44 x 27 cm and is currently housed in the Galleria d’Arte Moderna in Milan, Italy.

Featuring Modigliani’s distinct style, the artwork depicts a portrait rendered with elongated features and soft, flowing lines that exude an aura of melancholy and introspection. The facial expression is stoic, and the use of muted color tones provides a sense of quiet contemplation. The background appears abstract and somewhat undefined, drawing the viewer’s focus to the central figure. This composition reflects Modigliani’s characteristic exploration of the human form and emotion through simplified, yet evocative, brushstrokes.
