Louise 1917

"Louise" is a 1917 oil painting by Amedeo Modigliani, a prominent figure in early 20th-century modern art. The painting showcases Modigliani's signature style, characterized by elongated necks, almond-shaped eyes, and simplified forms. The sitter, Louise, is depicted with a melancholic expression and a gaze that seems to pierce through the viewer. This portrait, like many of Modigliani's works, embodies the artist's fascination with the human form and his exploration of emotional depth.
