"Study for the Decoration of the Aviation Center of Briey" is a preparatory work for a mural by Fernand Léger. Léger, a prominent figure in the Cubist movement, was known for his bold geometric shapes and vibrant colors. This study features a dynamic composition of geometric forms, including a large blue shape, a yellow and orange diagonal, and a circular motif. The use of contrasting colors, particularly the bright yellow background, adds to the energy and dynamism of the work. This piece exemplifies Léger's interest in the modern world and the technological advancements of his time, specifically in this case, the aviation industry. The study is currently housed in the Musée National Fernand Léger in Biot, France.
