The artwork titled “Les Lézards,” created by Jean Cocteau in 1961, belongs to the Expressionism art movement. It falls within the design genre. The artwork showcases a striking composition featuring various forms that seem to dance across a vibrant orange backdrop. Executed with a blend of geometric precision and artistic fluidity, the artwork exudes a dynamic interplay of shapes. Dominated by lizard-like figures rendered in a striking and somewhat abstract manner, it reflects Cocteau’s multifaceted approach and his inclination towards bold, expressive representation. The contrast between the dark outlines of the figures and the bright background reinforces the dramatic flair typical of the Expressionism movement.
