About Servant Girl

The artwork titled “Servant Girl” was created by Amedeo Modigliani circa 1918 in Paris, France. Executed using oil on canvas, it embodies the Expressionist art movement. This portrait measures 152.5 by 61 centimeters and is currently housed in the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York, United States.

The artwork portrays a young female servant standing in a modest pose, her head slightly tilted to the side. Her elongated face, characteristic of Modigliani’s style, exhibits a placid, contemplative expression, absent of detailed features, notably lacking pupils in her eyes. She wears a dark, simple dress with a white collar, which contrasts with the muted tones of the background. The girl’s hands are clasped together in front of her, giving a sense of stillness and introspection. The background appears to be a plain, indoor setting, with soft brushstrokes contributing to the overall subdued atmosphere of the piece.
