In this painting, Léger combines several styles of contemporary modernist styles. Playing cards and clay pipes were common elements in Cubist paintings, and Léger places these in the foreground, against a background of geometric shapes – a popular theme in Abstraction – and semi-naturalistic leaves, adding a note of Surrealist composition to the piece.
