About Street of Dantzig

The artwork, titled “Street of Dantzig,” is a creation by the artist Fernand Leger, known for his involvement in the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement. It belongs to the genre of sketch and study and is part of the series “Album X la ville.” This piece is currently housed in the Musée National Fernand Léger, located in Biot, France.

The artwork depicts an urban scene with three figures positioned amidst a brick-laden street. The composition includes elements such as a bicycle, lamppost, and building structures that add depth to the urban setting. The central figures appear to be engaged in casual conversation, contributing to a sense of everyday life. Leger’s use of distinct lines and a limited color palette, dominated by reds and yellows, reflects his signature style and offers a study in urban human interaction.
