Female Head (1913)
Based on the original from Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920)
This head, carved from stone, shows instantly Modigliani's fascination with the classical African and Etruscan sculptures. The classical caryatids with their balanced direct lining and their modest beauty inspired him. His later paintings show again elongated shapes and joyful eyes which evoke the poetic atmosphere of early Italian Gothic.
