In the artwork, a figure is presented in an elaborate costume, featuring bold, geometric shapes and a striking color palette dominated by black, white, and light greens with accents of yellow. The design of the costume showcases a strong sense of abstraction and stylization characteristic of Cubist sensibilities. The figure wears a coat with large, exaggerated buttons and a high collar, paired with bold color blocks and angular lines that emphasize the modernist approach of the artist. The prominent use of simplified, intersecting shapes and forms exemplifies Leger’s distinct visual language, combining functionality with artistic expression in a cohesive and visually compelling manner.
