Still life 1925

Fernand Léger's "Still Life" from 1925, a quintessential example of Cubist art, displays the artist's signature style. The composition is fragmented, reducing the objects to geometric forms and planes. Léger's use of bold colors, contrasting black lines and white outlines enhances the visual impact, highlighting the dynamic relationship between the objects, including a bowl of fruit, a pitcher, and a covered dish. This artwork is a prime example of Léger's exploration of modern life through a stylized and simplified lens. The use of geometric forms and simplified representation are characteristic of Cubism, a style that emerged in the early 20th century.
