The artwork, titled “Divinité baroque” and created by the artist Le Corbusier in 1943, belongs to the Cubism movement and is categorized within the figurative genre.
“Divinité baroque” portrays a simplified human figure, rendered with linear precision and abstract forms typical of Cubism. The figure is composed of clear, bold outlines that define its geometric and angular structure. The use of minimalistic details contributes to its abstraction, emphasizing the form and spatial relationships over realistic representation. The figure is segmented in a manner that creates a sense of fragmented unity, consistent with Cubist principles. The palette is muted, accentuating the stark contrast between the lines and the background. Overall, the artwork embodies the characteristics of Cubism, focusing on the deconstruction and reassembly of form.
