Other | Not in D'Atri papers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Extract t from Suzy Delburgo & Lola Failant-Dumas study during the Paris 1981 Exhibition (pp. 20-47): With Hanka Zborowska with folded hands (Nº 18) and the Woman with a fan (n ° 100), Modigliani reaches the summit of a technique of its own: adorning it, line, transparency of tones reach th perfection. 'These two works have very similar characteristics: they are painted on supports in extremely fine and tight cotton canvas (36 weft threads by 34 warp threads per cm2). these supports show, on radiography, large rounded areas of greater opacity which can only be explained by irregularities in the commercial preparation of the canvases made with lead white, so the two canvases appear to come from the same piece, irregularly prepared. In addition, the pictorial technique of the two works is extremely close. The line of the drawing, a real ara-need of a single jet, synthetic, is of a confounding safety. The low density of the radiographic image indicates that to color these diaphanous bodies, light materials, devoid of lead white, placed in a very dilute layer, were used. The touch is similar to the previous portraits, a little more elongated, but broad and fluid to accentuate the harmony and the subtlety of the tones, the elegance of the forms (fig. 19). However, the portrait of Hanka Zborowska seems to have been more worked than that of the Woman with the Eventail. On the latter, in fact, the preparation of the details of the face does not appear, contrary to what is always found in Modigliani. Perhaps one could conclude either with a deliberately growing stylization, or more probably with a portrait not completed by the painter and which would have been finished after his death.
