oil on canvas, 60×50 cm
signed and dated lower right P. Conti 1923
Portrayed countless times, Conti's mother is captured in this painting with a particularly alluring gaze. The striking similarity of features, in this case, is countered by the desire to enclose the image in a lucid artistic design, which has a precious, exotic feel.
