Story

A woman's head is shown in close detail, her black hair framing a face with closed eyes, painted in ochre and black tones set against a pale background. The quiet pose suggests rest. This oil painting dates from 1919 and was made by Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920), who worked within modern art and held citizenship in the Kingdom of Italy. He was also known for a portrait of Jean Cocteau.
