“Model for the mosaic of the Church of Our Lady of All Graces,” created by Fernand Léger in 1947, belongs to the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement and represents the genre of design. This artwork is currently located in the Musée National Fernand Léger in Biot, France.
The artwork features a stylized representation of a church façade, adorned with colorful, abstract shapes and forms. Dominating the center is an arched doorway, framed by vibrant blocks of color that invoke a sense of stained glass. To the left, a radiant sun and expressive forms add a dynamic contrast. Above, the roof area is filled with interlocking, curvilinear segments of various hues and textures, depicting both natural and symbolic elements. On the right, an iconic human face with a headdress, perhaps symbolizing divinity or grace, gazes outward serenely. The intricate yet playful composition of the artwork reflects Léger’s unique, modernist approach to themes of spirituality and communal space.
