Excerpt from Sotheby’s catalogue: Léger's heroic Femme en bleu is one of the grandes dames of Cubism. This spectacular image is one the movement's most enduring achievements and a milestone on the path to abstraction. Created on the eve of the First World War, it captures the watershed moment when Léger pushed beyond figuration, a radical gesture which would find full expression in his celebrated Contrastes de formes of 1913.
