Lola de Valence by Modigliani in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, January 2019
![Lola de Valence by Modigliani in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, January 2019 Lola de Valence by Modigliani in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, January 2019](https://cdn.ipernity.com/200/91/00/48489100.2c148c85.640.jpg?r2)

Lola de Valence,1915
Object Details
Artist: Amedeo Modigliani (Italian, Livorno 1884–1920 Paris)
Date: 1915
Medium: Oil on paper, mounted on wood
Dimensions: H. 20 1/2 × W. 13 1/4 in. (52.1 × 33.7 cm)
Classification: Paintings
Credit Line: Bequest of Miss Adelaide Milton de Groot (1876-1967), 1967
Accession Number: 67.187.84
Modigliani consistently integrated stylistic features of African art into his distinctive portraits. This work represents Lola de Valence, a famous dancer who had previously modeled for Edouard Manet. Recalling a type of mask made in the French Congo, the head’s elongated shape and abstracted facial features also appear in Modigliani’s limestone sculpture Woman’s Head (on view nearby). Although the artist had abandoned sculpture by 1914 to focus exclusively on painting, his African-inflected sculptural style remained a touchstone for his painted portraits until his death in 1920.
