Fernand Léger and ceramicist Roland Brice, The Yellow Flower, 1952
Fernand Léger and Roland Brice, The Flower That Walks, c.1953, Léger Museum
Léger is deemed to be one of the post-war influences on architecture. This sculpture, seen through glass, is a model for part of an unexecuted project for the memorial hospital at Sainte-Lô, designed by the architect Paul Nelson and completed in 1956. The monumental flower statue, one of many to represent therapeutic themes, was to be found walking the external spaces.
The Sunflower, created from a 1950 study by Brice and a collaborator in 1967 for the museum
