Trouville 1950

Fernand Léger's "Trouville," created in 1950, is a black and white ink drawing that exemplifies the artist's signature Cubist style. The artwork, currently housed at the Musee National Fernand Léger in Biot, France, depicts a scene of a fishing net, boat, and other nautical imagery. Through geometric shapes and fragmented forms, Léger emphasizes the industrial and mechanical aspects of the subject matter, typical of his artistic vocabulary. The simplified forms and bold outlines lend a sense of dynamism and energy to the composition, inviting viewers to engage with the intricacies of the depicted scene.
