The artwork titled “Skating Rink Marine blue and red drawing of costume,” created by Fernand Léger in 1921, exemplifies the Cubism movement and falls within the design genre. The composition is a stylized and abstract representation, characterized by bold geometric forms and a minimalist aesthetic.
The artwork prominently features a figure composed of strong, angular shapes rendered in a deep marine blue color, accented with touches of red in the hat, and subtle linear details that suggest facial features. The figure appears to be in motion, emphasizing the dynamic and fragmented nature typical of Cubist works. The simplicity and abstraction of the forms leave much to the viewer’s interpretation while showcasing Léger’s unique approach to capturing movement, form, and color.
