Head 1911 - 1912

This limestone sculpture, “Head,” is a prime example of Amedeo Modigliani’s iconic style. Created between 1911 and 1912, the piece embodies Modigliani's fascination with elongated forms and simplified features, evident in the elongated neck and almond-shaped eyes. The sculpture's starkness and minimalist approach capture the essence of the human form with a captivating, stylized beauty. This work, now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a testament to Modigliani’s enduring impact on modern sculpture.
