Reverie 1914

Amedeo Modigliani's 1914 painting, "Reverie," is a portrait of a young woman in a contemplative state. Known for his elongated figures and expressive use of color, Modigliani captures a sense of melancholy and introspective thought in the sitter's posture. The figure's elongated neck and almond-shaped eyes, characteristic of Modigliani's style, contribute to the overall mood of introspection. The use of vibrant, yet muted colors, particularly in the woman's clothing and the background, adds depth and visual interest to the composition. "Reverie" is a testament to Modigliani's mastery of portraiture and his ability to convey emotion through the use of form and color.
