Young Woman in a Shirt (The Little Milkmaid) 1917

Amedeo Modigliani’s 1917 painting "Young Woman in a Shirt (The Little Milkmaid)" showcases his signature style, characterized by elongated figures, simplified forms, and a distinctive use of color. The painting depicts a seated woman in a white shirt, her posture suggesting a sense of quiet contemplation. The artist's emphasis on the model's long neck, almond-shaped eyes, and delicate features highlights a sense of both elegance and vulnerability. The muted palette, with its soft pinks, blues, and greens, creates a subtle but captivating atmosphere, further emphasizing the sense of intimacy and melancholic beauty that is inherent in Modigliani's work.
