Seated Nude

Amedeo Modigliani
1917. Oil on canvas. 100 x 65 cm. Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp.
A striking example from Modigliani’s celebrated series of nudes commissioned by his art dealer Léopold Zborowski between 1916 and 1919. The painting exemplifies the artist's signature aesthetic: elongated proportions, almond-shaped eyes, sweeping calligraphic contours, and a rich, warm palette of terracotta and flesh tones. Modigliani modernized the classic nude genre by capturing his subject with candid, vulnerable intimacy, seamlessly fusing sculptural grace with a quiet, soulful melancholy.
