"Flint" is a 1933 drawing by Fernand Léger, renowned for his Cubist and abstract works. This piece, created in pencil, features a simplified, almost skeletal form reminiscent of a skull or stone. It exemplifies Léger's fascination with geometric shapes and the reduction of figures to their essential forms. The stark contrasts of light and shadow emphasize the contours of the subject, drawing the viewer's eye to its angularity and solidity. The work is currently on display at the Musee National Fernand Leger in Biot, France.
