#ModiglianiUpClose 7/18: Sequel to my previous post. This time, you are looking at the canvas’ verso. The pentimento of a face with vacuous icy blue eyes and a yellow brimmed hat appears like an apparition behind the main figure and stares intently at us. A haunting image that would make a perfectly spooky book cover for a Victorian era supernatural sensation novel, don’t you think?
