A Modigliani Face

When I saw this young Senegalese girl, her presence brought fourth images of the sculpture and paintings done by the Italian artist Modigliani. He was told while working in Paris that he should have a look at the African Sculpture on exhibit at that time. When he took the time, it made such an impression on him that he changed his style of painting and sculpting.

(This is a sample of a painting done by Modigliani.)
