Creation of the World 

"Creation of the World" is a gouache on paper by Fernand Léger, a renowned artist of the early 20th century. The artwork exemplifies Léger's signature Cubist style, characterized by bold geometric forms and a simplification of the human figure. The use of primary colors, particularly black, white, and a vibrant orange-red, contributes to the artwork's dynamic composition. The figure is depicted in a stylized and fragmented manner, emphasizing the artist's interest in exploring the relationship between the human form and machine age aesthetics. This artwork is housed in the Musée National Fernand Léger in Biot, France, and is a testament to Léger's innovative approach to art, influencing generations of artists since its creation.
