Galerie Mont Woman with blue eyes – Amedeo Modigliani^ Modigliani

In Amedeo Modigliani’s Woman with blue eyes, we are immediately struck by the simplicity and eloquence of the form. This portrait, characteristic of Modigliani’s modernist approach, presents an enigmatic, slender female figure with deep, empty blue eyes, almost like windows onto an elusive soul. The face, with its elongated, streamlined features, and the tapering silhouette are typical of the artist’s unique style, influenced by African art and classical antiquity, and part of the École de Paris artistic movement.

The texture of the paint is palpable, with visible brushstrokes that add a tactile dimension to the visual experience. The colour palette is restrained but powerful, dominated by earthy tones and blues, which reinforce the mystical presence of the figure. Despite the lack of setting or narrative context, this portrait manages to evoke an untold story, leaving the viewer to reflect silently on the identity and hidden emotions of the woman depicted.
