Fernand Leger Prints & Artwork Online

French artist Fernand Leger (1881 – 1955) spent the latter years of his 20s forming his artistic style. Though initially trained in architecture, Leger later moved into painting. He first painted with what seemed to be influences of Impressionism, though most of the artwork from that period were destroyed by Leger the artist himself. Moving away from Impressionistic art, Leger met various avant-garde artists and created a unique form of Cubism, dubbed “Tubism.”

Starting in 1910, Fernand Leger began working with other prominent artists – like Robert Delaunay, Albert Gleizes and more. The Puteaux Group, or Section d’Or, developed a style coming from the Cubism movement; Leger himself, influenced by Italian Futurism, created more and more abstract paintings.

He continued in this style until 1914, when he was called to serve on the French army. During this time, Fernand Leger’s artwork became more mechanical as he largely focused on producing art depicting artillery, graphic scenes, fellow soldiers and the war in general.

Leger the artist continued on into the mid 1900’s, gaining inspiration and influence from a variety of places – including cinema, his time in the United States during World War II as well as from the Communist Party, which he joined in 1945.
