The work and its artist

Fernand Léger (1881-1955)

Fernand Léger, born February 4, 1881, in Argentan (Orne) and died August 17, 1955 in Gif-sur-Yvette (Essonne), was a French painter, also creator of tapestry and stained glass cartoons, decorator, ceramist, sculptor, draughtsman and illustrator. He was one of the first to publicly exhibit Cubist-oriented work, although his style has sometimes been described as "Tubist".
