Les deux filles 1918

Amedeo Modigliani's "Les deux filles" (1918) is a portrait painting that depicts two young girls. The work is characteristic of Modigliani's style, featuring elongated figures, simplified forms, and a muted color palette. The two girls are positioned closely together, with the older girl, dressed in black, sitting slightly behind the younger girl, who wears a white dress. The artist's signature, stylized elongated faces and almond-shaped eyes, are particularly prominent in this work. This painting, completed just two years before his death, reflects the influence of early 20th-century avant-garde movements, including Cubism and Expressionism, on Modigliani's unique style.
