Une femme devant le paysage 1921

"Une femme devant le paysage" (1921) by Fernand Léger showcases the artist's signature Cubist style. The painting features a woman in a bright red headdress and polka-dot dress, rendered in bold, geometric forms. The background is a grid-like structure of intersecting black and white lines, creating a fragmented and abstract space. Léger's use of vivid colors and simplified shapes emphasizes the dynamism and energy of modern life. This work exemplifies the artist's exploration of the interplay between figuration and abstraction, making it a significant piece in the development of Cubism.
