Caryatid in the Form a Standing Nude (ca. 1912)
At a young age, Modigliani traveled to the store quarries of Carrara to become skilled in the art of sculpting. Later he got fascinated by the traditional sculptures from Africa and Oceania. As far as we know, Modigliani made 24 sculpted heads, and only two complete human figures which both have the characteristics of a caryatid. The original sculpture made from limestone is 1.6 meters tall, the largest one he ever made. It shows a mixture of archaic styles, ranging from Cycladic to Cambodian.
