“Landscape animated 1st study” is an artwork created by Fernand Léger in 1921. It is part of the Cubism art movement and falls under the genre of cityscape.
The artwork depicts a stylized, geometric interpretation of a cityscape employing Cubist techniques. Featuring bold, simplified shapes and a vivid color palette, the composition showcases a prominent figure in the foreground, set against a backdrop of architectural forms and abstract vegetation. The use of contrasting colors such as yellows, reds, and greens adds depth and vibrancy to the scene, while the arrangement of forms suggests an interplay between nature and urban elements. The abstract and fragmented style, characteristic of Cubism, emphasizes the dynamic and animated nature of the landscape.
