Art et Solidarité (art and solidarity) by Fernand Leger

1957

About the Item

This lithographic poster was printed in 1957 at the Atelier Mourlot in Paris to promote the recent works of contemporary painters and sculptors, sold for the benefit of free vacation for the impoverished city children. The image was taken from Fernand Leger's piece from the same title. Certificate of Provenance: Each individual work of art carefully curated by Mourlot Editions comes with a Certificate of Provenance, signed, dated, stamped, and numbered by Eric Mourlot. This certificate guarantees the origin and authenticity of your personal lithograph. Léger was a draftsman, illustrator, printmaker, stage designer, filmmaker, and ceramicist. In his early works, he created a personal form of Cubism, which he gradually modified into a more figurative, populist style. His bold simplified treatment of modern subject matter has caused him to be regarded as a forerunner of pop art. His mature work underwent many changes, from his Cubist-derived abstraction in the 1910s to distinctive realist imagery in the 1950s.

Bernhardt was so satisfied with the success of this first poster that she signed a six-year contract with the artist.
