Quatre papillons et un insecte 1953

"Quatre papillons et un insecte" (1953) by Fernand Léger is a vibrant oil painting on canvas that showcases the artist's signature Cubist style. The composition is a dynamic interplay of geometric shapes and bold colors, with a red background setting the stage for a flurry of simplified forms. Léger’s flat, stylized butterflies and insect are arranged in a seemingly random yet deliberate manner, illustrating his artistic exploration of form and space. The artwork represents Léger's interest in exploring the beauty of everyday objects and the human experience through the lens of abstract forms.
