The artwork, titled “Branch,” was created by Fernand Léger in 1952. Representing the Surrealism art movement, this still life piece measures 63 x 35.5 cm and is housed in the Musée National Fernand Léger in Biot, France.
The artwork is characterized by its abstract and surrealistic qualities, displaying a dynamic interplay of bold colors and organic shapes. Dominated primarily by deep blue and vibrant yellow hues, the piece presents an intricate composition of interlocking forms. The structure of the artwork exudes a sense of movement and fluidity, reflecting the Surrealist tendency to transcend ordinary visual experiences. The stark contrast between the colors and the unique forms affirms the artist’s innovative approach to visual storytelling, making “Branch” a notable example of mid-20th-century Surrealism.
