Red Pot (1926) by Fernand Leger

The artwork named “Red Pot” by Fernand Léger, created in 1926, belongs to the Cubism art movement. Measuring 65 x 92 cm, this still life painting is housed at the Musée Granet in Aix-en-Provence, France.

The artwork exemplifies the Cubist style with its fragmented forms and geometric shapes. Dominated by rectangular and quadrilateral forms, the composition integrates a harmonious palette that includes bold, vivid colors such as red, black, blue, and yellow. The central motif is a prominent red pot, juxtaposed against abstract floral elements and intricate patterns. Through the use of overlapping and layered planes, Léger creates a rhythmic and dynamic visual experience that emphasizes the interaction of shapes and colors within the still life genre.
