Classic Fernand Leger

This impressive oil on canvas is instantly recognizable as a work of the great French artist, Fernand Leger (1881-1955). Its authenticity is suggested by the Gallerie Louise Leris certificate verso. The certificate titles it “Acrobates” and dates it to 1922. It is not known if that is the date of the painting or the date at which it passed into the hands of the gallery. There is also a faint Winsor and Newton stamp verso. Winsor and Newton was a major supplier of artists’ paints and canvases in the 1920s.
