Modigliani excelled in rendering ingenuous freshness of "average", men and women. He always sided instinctively with the common people; only among them, he felt, could be found the rich, deep humanity that gives life sense. Among them and among young people, of whom he made so many touching portraits. Never did Modigliani's refined and delicate craftsmanship show to better advantage than in this portrait of a boy of the streets.
