The artwork titled “Sacred Heart of Audincourt” was created by Fernand Léger in 1951. It represents the Purism art movement and falls under the design genre. This piece is currently housed at the Musée National Fernand Léger in Biot, France.
The artwork features a vibrant array of colors and geometric shapes, characteristic of Léger’s style. Dominating the composition are the bold hues of red, blue, yellow, and black, meticulously sectioned off by heavy, dark lines. These segments create a sense of fragmentation and rhythm, evoking a modernist mosaic influence. Illustrating a visual interplay between form and color, the intricate design invokes both symmetry and dynamic movement. The artwork’s vivid palette and structured patterns encapsulate the essence of Purism, reflecting Léger’s desire to merge artistic beauty with industrial clarity and precision.
