Georges Seurat (1859–1891) was a leading figure of Neo-Impressionism in late nineteenth-century France. He is best known as the originator of the pointillist technique, developing a highly intellectual form of painting based on color theory and visual perception. In works such as Bathers at Asnieres and A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, entire compositions are constructed from countless small dots, creating a distinctive world that combines stillness with subtle tension. Although Seurat’s life was cut short at the age of thirty-one, the body of work he left behind had a profound influence on Neo-Impressionism and, more broadly, on the development of twentieth-century art. This book presents a wide selection of Seurat’s works, ranging from early drawings and studies to his major pointillist paintings and works from his final years. Arranged primarily in chronological order, the volume allows readers to follow the natural progression of his techniques, compositional structures, and use of color. The one-work-per-page layout makes it possible to closely examine the placement of dots, the layering of colors, and the overall structure of each composition. Pages may also be removed and displayed as small posters. Placing a favorite work in one’s living space offers a way to bring art into everyday life.
