Les Constructeurs 1950

"Les Constructeurs," created in 1950 by Fernand Léger, depicts a group of construction workers in a bold and simplified style. Léger was known for his Cubist-inspired works, but his later career saw him embrace a more simplified, almost cartoon-like approach. The workers, rendered with flat planes of color, are engaged in their labor, emphasizing the dynamism and energy of everyday life. This painting is a testament to Léger's fascination with the human figure and its role in the modern world, showcasing his distinct style and the industrial themes prevalent in his work.
