The artwork, titled “Screen, three sheets, composing on brown background,” is an abstract piece by Fernand Léger, an artist associated with the Orphism movement. Measuring 201 x 270 cm, this artwork is housed in the Musée National Fernand Léger in Biot, France.
The artwork comprises three vertically aligned sheets set against a brown background. Swirls and abstract organic shapes, rendered in lighter shades, meander across the entire composition, creating a visually striking effect. The forms appear to float on the surface, evoking a sense of fluidity and motion. The overall aesthetic is minimalistic yet powerful, demonstrating Léger’s masterful use of form and color to elicit an emotional response. The arrangement and interaction of the shapes imbue the piece with a dynamic rhythm, inviting viewers to engage with it deeply.
