Standing Nude Woman (1905-1907) 3
Created around 1905-1907, this sketch shows Amedeo Modigliani experimenting with the human form just as he was absorbing the radical new styles of Paris, including early Cubism. You can see his signature fluid lines emerging here, capturing a standing nude woman looking back over her shoulder with quick, expressive strokes and rough hatching to suggest volume. It feels like a raw, private study, offering a fascinating glimpse into the creative roots of the elongated, sensual figures he would soon become famous for.
