Considéré comme un peintre « réaliste » en phase avec les éléments de la vie moderne, Fernand Léger propose, des années 20 au milieu des années 40, des associations d’objets déroutantes, jouant de ruptures d’échelle, de mises en espace d’objets flottants, de motifs biomorphiques. S’il reste fidèle au « réalisme de conception » qu’il définit comme celui de la ligne, de la forme et de la couleur, Léger semble aussi attentif aux recherches plastiques des Surréalistes.
