Modigliani Woman with Fan from James Bond Skyfall (2024) Pintura por James Bagatel

My 4th painting of Modigliani's Woman with Fan as seen in the James Bond Film Skyfall. The original painting was stolen from a Paris museum in May 2010 and has never been recovered, 2 years later it featured in the Bond film but this was a copy or a print & not the real thing..

Only two images of the original seem to exist one supposedly showing it when it was restored / cleaned and one before the cleaning. Both images differ markedly in colour and especially the detail in the face especially the eyes. So the true colours and technique can only be estimated when attempting an authentic reproduction.

Interestingly another painting of the subject Lunia Czechowska was sold at Christies auction house in 2019 and the colour reproduced on Christies web site probably show the true colours that Modigliani used when painting this female sitter.

In my work I have gone for colour and detail that combines both current available images so offers a 3rd version that will be interesting to compare.

Note there is no signature on the front..this can be added at the buyers request.

I have two frames that fit this painting both shown in images, if you do not require the frame please send message
