Why Modigliani

Modigliani portraits need height and empty wall, not a crowded gallery arrangement

The elongation only reads properly when the canvas is tall enough and nothing else competes for attention beside it.

People hesitate over the blank almond eyes, then find them easy to live with. At close range the faces look strange; from across a room they read as calm and quiet, which is why these work in bedrooms and hallways. A hand-painted version also shows what a print flattens out: the thin, scraped paint over a warm ground, and the single confident line drawn around a shoulder or a jaw.

Go taller than you think. A portrait under about 75cm high loses the stretched proportion that makes it a Modigliani, so aim for 90 to 120cm on the vertical, centred around 145cm from the floor. The palette is ochre, burnt umber, oxblood and slate blue, so it sits beautifully with timber, tan leather and lime-washed walls. Cool grey-blue paint and high-gloss white drain the warmth straight out of it.

Questions people ask

Is this a print or a real painting?

A real painting. Every piece is hand-painted in oils on canvas by a professional artist. Nothing here is printed, and nothing is a print with paint dabbed on top.

How close is it to the original?

Very. Our artists work from high-resolution references of the original and match composition, colour and brushwork. Because it is painted by hand, no two are identical, which is rather the point.

What sizes can I order?

Seven standard sizes, from 60 × 50cm up to 200 × 135cm, and custom sizes on request. Open the size guide on any painting to see each size to scale next to a sofa.

Framed or unframed?

Your choice at checkout: stretched and ready to hang, rolled in a tube, or framed in floating, classic or ornate frames. A floating frame adds a few centimetres each side; an ornate frame adds roughly 8 to 12cm.

How long does it take?

21 to 28 days, because it is painted to order. Delivery is free and tracked anywhere in Australia.

What if I don't love it?

Thirty-day money-back guarantee. Tell us within thirty days of delivery and we will make it right or refund you.

About Modigliani & our reproductions

The life

Amedeo Modigliani produced work so distinctive that people still wonder how, in Paris at the start of the twentieth century, he remained untouched by either Cubism or Fauvism. After befriending the sculptor Brancusi he settled in Montparnasse, showing his elongated stone heads at the 1912 Salon d'Automne before abandoning sculpture on health grounds two years later.

He turned instead to portraits and nudes — slender, mannered figures with oval heads, linear features and long, inclined necks that made his style instantly recognisable. Ravaged by illness and excess, he died in Paris in 1920 aged just thirty-five; his pregnant fiancée Jeanne Hébuterne took her own life days later, sealing one of art's most tragic love stories.

Our reproductions

Our painters draw his long, clean contours and warm ochres with a steady hand, so every elongated neck and almond eye keeps its effortless grace. Delivery is free Australia-wide.
