フェルナンド・レガー (1881-1955)

 
A veteran of the battle of Verdun, Fernand Leger witnessed the horror and staggering loss of over 1 Million of his fellow countrymen during World War I.  This horrific experience of fighting in the trenches of Europe left an indelible mark on the artist.  The modern and mechanized aspects of this new form of warfare, with tanks, modern artillery, and gruesome tactics, inspired Leger to create some of his greatest masterpieces.  <br><br>The Present drawing, executed in 1930, is a relic from the decade following the First World War.  Untitled (1930) was purchased from the Katherine Kuh galley in Chicago- and has been impeccably preserved by the family of the original purchaser.  It is exceedingly rare to find drawings like Untitled outside of Museum collections.

ヴェルダンの戦いに参加したフェルナン・レジェは、第一次世界大戦中、100万人を超える同胞の恐怖と驚異的な喪失を目の当たりにしました。ヨーロッパの塹壕で戦ったこの恐ろしい経験は、画家に消えない痕跡を残しました。 戦車、近代的な大砲、陰惨な戦術など、近代的で機械化されたこの新しい形態の戦争は、レジェの偉大な傑作の数々を生み出すきっかけとなった。

1930年に描かれた《プレゼント》は、第一次世界大戦後の10年間に描かれた遺物である。 無題(1930年)」は、シカゴのキャサリン・クーギャレーで購入され、購入者の家族によって完璧に保存されています。 美術館のコレクション以外で「無題」のようなドローイングを見つけることは極めて稀である。
