La chaise sous la tente 1950

"La chaise sous la tente" (1950) by Fernand Léger is a vibrant gouache painting that exemplifies the artist's signature Cubist style. Léger's bold, simplified forms and flattened perspective create a sense of dynamism and energy. The composition is dominated by brightly colored geometric shapes, representing a chair, a tent, and other objects. The use of thick black outlines further accentuates the shapes, making the painting visually striking and engaging. Léger's works often explored the interplay of industrial and organic forms, reflecting his fascination with the modern world, a theme present in this artwork.
