Berlin's Alte Nationalgalerie holds 1 work by Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Modigliani's elongated portraits and nudes — the almond eyes, the long necks, the simplified forms — are among the most distinctive images in early 20th-century art. In person, the paint surface of his best work is richly textured, and the faces have a psychological presence that their stylisation seems at first to preclude.
