Still life composition leaf 1927

"Still Life Composition Leaf" (1927) by Fernand Léger is a prime example of Cubist art, a style that emerged in the early 20th century. The painting showcases Léger's signature geometric forms and vibrant color palette, which he used to break down objects and represent them from multiple perspectives. This particular work features a simplified still life arrangement of a leaf, a framed object, and a small toy, all rendered with bold, flat shapes and sharp lines. The work, currently located in the Musee National Fernand Léger, Biot, France, exemplifies Léger's interest in the beauty of everyday objects and the dynamism of modern life.
