Amedeo Modigliani, Stone Head – Attributed - Limestone sculpture representing a stylized head, attributed to Amedeo Modigliani. The piece strongly recalls the artist’s iconic stone heads created between 1911 and 1913, during his exploration of archaic and primitivist influences. The elongated features, minimalist expression, and intentionally rough texture suggest affinities with African tribal art and Cycladic figures—hallmarks of Modigliani’s sculptural language. A captivating and evocative work, resonating with the deep roots of early 20th-century avant-garde sculpture. Material: limestone Technique: hand-carved sculpture Period: early 20th century (attributed) Condition: good, consistent with age Provenance: private collection Size: 29 x 18 x 11 cm
