{"product_id":"tableau-chaim-soutine-amedeo-modigliani","title":"Chaïm Soutine – Amedeo Modigliani","description":"\u003ch2\u003eChaïm Soutine: the gaze at the heart of the portrait\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eChaïm Soutine sits facing us, hands clasped, in a dark suit before a blue-grey wall and a small brown table. \u003cstrong\u003eChaïm Soutine by Amedeo Modigliani\u003c\/strong\u003e brings blue, black and brown into dialogue in a frontal vertical composition balanced by the table at one side. The contours of the face, the pose and the clothing give the sitter an immediately recognisable identity. From a distance, the figure commands the wall; closer up, shifts of colour, touches in the background and details in the gaze reveal a more intimate image. This restraint explains the lasting strength of Modigliani’s portraits: they hold the eye without needing spectacular surroundings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA mineral blue for an office or living room\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003evertical canvas print with an expressive portrait\u003c\/strong\u003e sits naturally in a living room, office, entrance hall or corridor. Its blue, black and brown palette works with wood, linen, cream walls, muted blues and earth tones. The format adds height to an entrance or narrow stretch of wall, while remaining substantial enough to become a living-room focal point. The work presents a quiet yet compelling artist’s portrait. It is equally at home in a contemporary interior or a more classic setting, as the simple forms allow the furniture around it to breathe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Montparnasse painter seen by Modigliani in 1918\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePainted in 1918, the work belongs to the years when Amedeo Modigliani was establishing his language as a portrait painter in Paris. The almond-shaped eyes, elongated neck and supple lines do not seek photographic likeness; they distil the sitter’s attitude and atmosphere. This \u003cstrong\u003ecanvas reproduction of Chaïm Soutine\u003c\/strong\u003e retains that introspective, cultured and profound character. It will appeal to admirers of modern art, the School of Paris and portraits that say much with few elements: a cultured, decorative image made to accompany the eye every day without becoming tiresome.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art Virtuoso","offers":[{"title":"31 × 46 cm","offer_id":55133159883081,"sku":"13799116105985251778","price":79.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"41 × 61 cm","offer_id":55133159915849,"sku":"26944067278551272372","price":89.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"51 × 76 cm","offer_id":55133159948617,"sku":"19538431019668332999","price":99.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"61 × 91 cm","offer_id":55133159981385,"sku":"71391864464806387737","price":129.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"81 × 122 cm","offer_id":55133160014153,"sku":"47166046561955004255","price":249.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9651\/9753\/files\/tableau-chaim-soutine-amedeo-modigliani-mockup-salle-a-manger.webp?v=1787633017","url":"https:\/\/art-virtuoso.com\/en\/products\/chaim-soutine-amedeo-modigliani","provider":"Art Virtuoso","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
