"The Zouave" is a painting created by the Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani, renowned for his distinctive style characterized by elongated forms and mask-like faces. Painted in 1918, during the later years of Modigliani's career, this work exemplifies his mature period, where he focused extensively on portraiture. The subject of the painting is a Zouave, a member of a light infantry regiment of the French Army, originally composed of Algerian Berbers. Zouaves were known for their distinctive and colorful uniforms, which often included elements such as baggy trousers, sashes, and fezzes.

Modigliani's portrayal of the Zouave is marked by his signature stylization. The figure is depicted with an elongated neck and face, almond-shaped eyes, and a serene, almost detached expression. The use of color in the painting is both vibrant and subtle, with the uniform's rich hues contrasting against the more muted background. This contrast serves to highlight the figure, drawing the viewer's attention to the Zouave's dignified presence.

The painting reflects Modigliani's interest in capturing the essence of his subjects rather than striving for photographic realism. His approach was influenced by various art movements, including Cubism and African art, which can be seen in the simplified forms and the emphasis on the subject's inner life. "The Zouave" is a testament to Modigliani's ability to blend these influences into a unique and personal style.

This work is part of Modigliani's broader oeuvre, which includes numerous portraits of friends, lovers, and acquaintances from his bohemian circle in Paris. Despite his relatively short career, Modigliani left a lasting impact on the art world, and "The Zouave" remains a significant example of his contribution to modern art. The painting is held in a private collection, making it a rare and valuable piece for art historians and collectors alike.
