Fernand Léger by Peter De Francia 1st Ed

About the Item

Fernand Léger by Peter De Francia. Published by Yale University Press, 1983. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. Joseph Fernand Henri Léger; (February 4, 1881 – August 17, 1955) was a French painter, sculptor, and filmmaker. In his early works he created a personal form of cubism (known as "tubism") which he gradually modified into a more figurative, populist style. His boldly simplified treatment of modern subject matter has caused him to be regarded as a forerunner of pop art. 280 pp., 60 color plates and many b&w illustrations. The book explores Léger's writings and works in a variety of media including painting, film, theatre, decor, ceramic sculpture, and mosaics.
