About The woman leaves (the woman with the bird)

The artwork entitled “The Woman Leaves (The Woman with the Bird)” was created by the notable artist Fernand Léger. This piece, which is a portrait, is a testament to the Cubism art movement and measures 42 x 36 cm. It is currently housed in the Musée National Fernand Léger in Biot, France.

The artwork demonstrates a characteristic Cubist style, featuring a complex composition of intersecting lines and fragmented forms. The central figure, a woman, is depicted with geometric abstraction, her features rendered in simplified yet expressive details. Surrounding the figure are leaf-like structures that appear to intertwine with the woman’s form, adding a sense of organic fluidity to the composition. Above the woman, a bird is subtly integrated into the artwork, further enriching the thematic narrative. The use of earthy tones and the textured surface contribute to the evocative nature of the piece, reflecting Léger’s mastery in merging form and concept within the Cubist framework.
