モディリアーニは1920年、結核のため35歳で早世し、近代美術の父の一人をこの世から奪った。 彼の作品は革命的だった。20世紀第1四半期にパリで生活し、制作したことで、この若い画家は、数十年前の印象派以来の絵画の最も重要な進歩の中心にいた。


彼の代表的なヌードで埋め尽くされた短く輝かしいキャリアは、紙に描かれた重要な作品群を考慮することなしに、完全に理解することはできない。カリアティード」とは、ギリシャの建築彫刻「カリアティッド」のこと。女性像が彫られたこの柱は、神殿のエンタブラチャーを支えている。モディリアーニはこの主題を


"優しさの柱 "と呼んだ。このデッサンは、モディリアーニの特徴的なスタイルである曲線とアーモンド形の初期の例を示している。
