"Girl in a Sailor’s Blouse" is a 1918 portrait by Amedeo Modigliani, known for its elongated figure and simplified form. The painting features a young woman with a striking, almond-shaped face, prominent eyes, and a long, graceful neck. Her gaze is direct, yet her expression is enigmatic. The artist's use of bold outlines and muted colors contributes to the work's unique visual impact. Modigliani, a prominent figure in the early 20th-century art world, was renowned for his distinctive style, characterized by his use of expressive line and the portrayal of subjects with an air of melancholic beauty.
