    Fernand Léger was a major French painter of the 20th century, born February 4, 1881 in Argentan, Normandy, and died August 17, 1955 in Gif-sur-Yvette, France. He was one of the most influential artists in modern art, playing a key role in several art movements, including Cubism, Futurism and Purism.
    Léger began his artistic career as a painter of scenery and advertising posters, where he developed a distinctive and colorful graphic style. Over time, his work moved away from realistic representation towards a more modern and abstract aesthetic.
    One of the most striking characteristics of Léger's work is his use of simple geometric shapes and bright colors. His paintings are often characterized by dynamic and balanced compositions, featuring industrial subjects, scenes of urban life and stylized human figures.
    During World War I, Léger served as a soldier, an experience which strongly influenced his art. His view of industrial modernity and urban life became more critical and engaged, reflecting the contrasts between modern technology and humanity.
    Léger was also a follower of experimental cinema and mechanical art. He worked on films and developed visual concepts for theater. His love for technology and mechanization also influenced his artistic style.
    Throughout his career, Léger experimented with different artistic mediums, including painting, sculpture, ceramics and mosaic. He was also a respected teacher, having taught at several art institutions in France and the United States.
    Léger left an important artistic legacy and his work continues to be exhibited and appreciated in museums around the world. His distinctive style and modern vision of art helped shape 20th century art and continue to influence generations of artists who come after him.
