Fernand Léger

Fernand Léger, born in 1881 in Argentan and died in 1955 in Gif-sur-Yvette, was a French painter and a pioneer of Cubism. His works, such as 'The City' and 'Three Women,' are characterized by their tubular and mechanical forms, reflecting his fascination with modernity and industrialization. Léger's innovative approach to form and color and his exploration of the relationship between art and modern life have established him as a key figure in 20th-century art.
